Description

This tenderly irreverent, fascinating and meticulously researched biopic plunges us into the heart of the artist's questions, his doubts and some of his finest musical gems.<br> Here, Gainsbourg is not yet Gainsbarre. This is "the earlier period," the 1960s and the beginning of the Yé-yé movement. The artist is searching for himself and defining his personality. We see the birth of an authentic writing style with a rich and inventive prosody.<br> We rediscover the jazzy, lyrically rich songs that defined the French maestro's style. We learn a great deal about this avant-garde man, a man searching for himself and experimenting. The lyrics are finely crafted, and the performances of the actor and the two musicians are spot-on. A beautiful story told through music...<br><br> "Gainsbourg Confidentiel is the album of nightfall. It's Gainsbourg's Mean Streets (that boozy, twilight masterpiece by Scorsese). It's the album of the lonely man smoking at the cleared table where she hasn't come. It's the jazz album of the middle of the night, when features swell, when bottles are empty, when empty cigarette packs are tossed on the floor." - Jean-François Brieu<br><br><li> Distribution :<br> Text by: Jean-François Brien<br> Directed by: David Fabre<br> Adaptation: Magoni<br> Performers: Stéphane Roux (Vocals), David Fabre (Guitar), Aurélien Maurice (Double Bass) Gainsbourg before Gainsbarre Between theatre and concert...
