Delicatessen review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 04/09/13
A fun dark comedy with a futuristic premise. the clown (Pinon) and Julie (Dougnac) become friends but is hindered by the jaded Clapet (Jean-Claude Dreyfus). "Life is wonderful." then the BS detector activates. Just of many subtle but laughable scenes from a unique futuristic film. Boasts of a witty screenplay and a spectacular set. Memorable lines: There's a tough world and I didn't make it." - Butcher. "Nobody is entirely evil: it's that circumstances that make them evil, or they don't know they are doing evil." - Louison. Highlights would be the music emanating from various sources, dream sequence and it's finale. Though it has loads of questionable sequences such as the hatred of Clapet when he thinks Loiuson was a nice person, lack of history of the Troglodistes and the Australian backfiring at him while not hitting its master. Delicatessen represents survival, mean demeanor, friendship, lust, and love.
