LI'L QUINQUIN
P'TIT QUINQUIN
France, 2014, Bruno Dumont
A comedy from Bruno Dumont (Humanité, Hadewijch),
France’s foremost proponent of miserablism and heir to the ascetic
spiritual striving of Robert Bresson? Stranger things have happened,
especially in Dumont’s miracle-laden movies. Li'l Quinquin,
originally a four-part miniseries for French TV, is set in sea-swept,
sparsely populated northern France (the rural setting of most of
Dumont's films). There two provincial cops try to solve a series of
bizarre murders while a mischievous moppet (li'l Quinquin) looks on. Cahiers du Cinéma named this the best film of 2014. “A wonderfully weird and unexpectedly hilarious murder mystery.” –Variety. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. Blu-ray. 200 min. www.kinolorber.com Special
admission $11; members and those age 25 & under $9; no passes,
twofers, or radio winners. This film supported by a generous grant from
Maison Française de Cleveland.
