약력

Jean-Pierre Mocky (6 July 1929 – 8 August 2019), pseudonym of Jean-Paul Adam Mokiejewski, was a French film director, actor, screenwriter and producer. Mocky was born in Nice, France to Polish immigrant parents, Jeanne Zylinska and Adam Mokiejewski. His father was Jewish and his mother was Catholic. Mocky appeared as an actor in the 1955 film Gli Sbandati and in many other movies, including some of those he also directed (Solo, L'albatros, L'Ombre d'une chance, Un Linceul n'a pas de poches). His 1987 film Le Miraculé was entered into the 37th Berlin International Film Festival. He began as an actor in the cinema and theater. In particular, he played in Jean Dréville's Les Casse-pieds (1948), Jean Cocteau's Orphée (1950) and Bernard Borderie's The Mask of the Gorilla (1957). But it was especially in Italy that he became famous, thanks to his role in I vinti by Michelangelo Antonioni. After working as an assistant with Luchino Visconti on Senso (1954) and Federico Fellini on La strada (1954), he wrote his first film, La Tête contre les murs (1959) and planned to direct it himself, but the producer preferred to entrust the task to Georges Franju. He went on to direct the following year with Les Dragueurs (1959). Since then, he has never stopped shooting. As early as the 1960s, he was able to reach a wide audience with crazy comedies such as A Funny Parishioner (1963) and La Grande Lessive (1968). After May 1968, he turned to darker films with Solo (1969), in which he shows a group of young terrorists of the extreme left, then L'Albatros (1971) which shows the corruption of politicians. In the 1980s, he returned to success with a film denouncing, a year before the drama of Heysel, the excesses of some football fans (À mort l'arbitre, 1984) and a comedy denouncing the hypocrisy around the pilgrimage to Lourdes (Le Miraculé, 1987). In the 1990s and 2000s, his films met with less success, but Mocky continued to shoot with much enthusiasm. In the beginning, his films were dedicated to the uprising against the restrictions imposed by society. Later, he concentrated on farce, as in Bonsoir where the homeless Alex (Michel Serrault) pretends to be the lover of the lesbian Caroline (Claude Jade) in order to save her inheritance from her homophobic relatives. Mocky's cinema, often satirical and pamphleteer, is generally inspired by the truth of society. He worked with few resources and filmed very quickly. He worked with Bourvil (A Funny Parishioner, The City of Unspeakable Fear, La Grande Lessive and The Stallion), Fernandel (The Exchange and Life), Michel Simon (The Red Ibis), Michel Serrault (twelve films including Le Miraculé), Francis Blanche (five films including The City of Unspeakable Fear), Jacqueline Maillan (five films), Jean Poiret (eight films) and with the stars Catherine Deneuve (Agent Trouble), Claude Jade (Bonsoir), Jane Birkin (Noir comme le souvenir), Jeanne Moreau (Le Miraculé) and Stéphane Audran (The Seasons of Pleasure). In 2010, he received the Prix Henri-Langlois for his entire career and the 2013 Alphonse Allais Prize. The International Festival of Film Entrevues in Belfort in 2012 and the Cinémathèque française in 2014 dedicated full retrospectives to him. He died on 8 August 2019.

Self (archive footage)
Catherine Deneuve couldn’t care less about being a celebrity, but fame made her an icon long ago and she occupies a special place in our imagination. The star is not one to let others get too close, but when she gives you her confidence, she keeps her word. If Deneuve’s career covers a half-century of cinema, it also bears witness to the force of a generation that experienced the deepest transformation of mores. This portrait reflects her entirely. The story of a mystery and an adventure.

파리의 생 제르맹 드 프레에 있는 시인 까페. 지적이며 미남인 시인 오르페와 술의 시인인 세제스트는 동료 시인들과 자주 이 까페에 드나든다. 어느날 검은 머리, 검은 옷에 진주 목걸이를 걸친 죽음의 여왕이 롤스로이스를 타고 이곳에 나타난다. 소름이 끼칠 정도로 싸늘한 분위기가 감돌지만 그녀는 매우 아름답다. 죽음의 여왕은 부하 두 명으로 하여금 술에 취한 시인 세제스트를 오토바이로 치여 죽이게 한다. 때마침 그 광경을 목격한 오르페, 여왕은 오르페와 함께 이미 숨진 세제스트를 싣고 죽음의 나라로 달린다. 당연히 병원으로 가는 줄 알았던 오르페지만 간 곳은 폐허가 된 별장이었다. 오르페는 죽음의 여왕이 세제스트를 불러일으켜 거울 속으로 사라지는 모습을 보게된다. 얼떨결에 오르페도 따라가다 겨울에 부딪혀 정신을 잃고 쓰러진다. 다시 의식을 찾았을 때는 낡은 별장의 흔적은 간 곳이 없고 황량한 들판에 자신이 쓰러져 있음을 알게 되었다. 오르페는 다시 생의 나라로 돌아오지만 정체를 알 수 없는 매력적인 여왕의 모습 때문에 사랑하는 아내였던 유리디스마저 돌보지 않고,오로지 자동차의 라디오에서 흘러나오는 나라의 암호에만 귀를 기울이는 것이었다. 죽음의 여왕은 이번에는 오르페를 파멸시키라는 임무를 띠게 되지만, 자기도 모르는 사이에 오르페를 사랑하게 된다. 어두운 밤이 되면 슬그머니 죽음의 나라로부터 내려와, 오르페의 침실에 나타나서 그의 자는 모습을 지켜보기도 한다. 이윽고 오르페에 대한 사랑의 감정을 이기지 못한 여왕은 인간들만이 느끼는 질투를 느끼게 되어 부인 유리디스를 살해한다. 그러나 여왕의 행동은 죽음의 나라에서는 용납할 수 없는 위반 행위였다. 이 때문에 그녀는 재판을 받게 된다. 여왕의 차를 운전하는 외르트비츠로부터 소식을 전해들은 오르페는 그의 안내를 받아 거울속의 나라로 들어간다. 이번에는 거울을 녹이는 장갑을 끼고서. 죽음의 나라에서 재판이 열리고 있었다.

Among those are the Practical Joker who will do anything for a laugh; the Party Entertainer who never stops singing; the Talkative Neigbor who forgets the time; the noisy neighbors who dance the tango all night; and women drivers, people who telephone at meal time, the friend you never saw before and amatuer medical experts. Much use of trick photography, montages, puppets and animation along with some adult Gallic wit and gentle satire.
