and Mum
Synopsis
First-time director Guillaume Gallienne turns his successful one-man stage show into this hilarious and inventive autobiographical crowd-pleaser at the expense of his own misfortunate coming-of-age experience as a gently awkward son of a regal yet domineering mother (played by Guillaume Gallienne in drag) who raised him as a girl, proclaiming the sexually confused young man as gay without him even realizing it himself. Embracing his presumed homosexuality with blind eagerness, Guillaume repeatedly finds himself in unfortunate situations that cause him much agony and heartbreak as life goes along. It is when this sensitive lost soul finally finds out his true self that he is ready to come out as a person he could now proudly identify with. Playing both himself and his mother, the endearing actor-director succeeds in bringing his own oddball charm into this flamboyant and disarmingly enjoyable comedy that ultimately serves as a confession of a grown son who decides to defend himself against his mother whom he equally worships and fears.
電影簡介
首次執導電影的法國搞笑紅人吉翁佳里恩以別開生面的技法，成功將熱評如潮的個人自傳式獨腳戲從舞臺搬上大銀幕，叫好又叫座。在本片身兼編、導、演三職的吉翁生於一個上流家庭，對強勢貴族母親（吉翁反串分飾）既愛又畏，只怪自幼就被母親當女兒看待。久而久之，這個陰柔小男生在潛移默化下理所當然地認為自己就是同志。他不但向英倫靚仔同窗大膽表白，更跑到西班牙向佛蘭明高舞后拜師學藝，目的不過為博取悍母的肯定。經歷多年在人生情路上的兜兜轉轉，有天他恍然頓悟，決定要向大家「出櫃」。這部充滿自嘲的爆笑成長血淚史，載歌載舞，好不熱鬧，細心的觀眾會發現，笑聲背後隱藏著的，卻是一封愛子獻及母親的情書。
