Dans une collection d\u00e9di\u00e9e au cin\u00e9ma am\u00e9ricain ind\u00e9pendant M6 Vid\u00e9o propose en DVD Images <\/em>(1972), film peu vu et mal aim\u00e9 de Robert Altman.<\/p>\n

Le film est tourn\u00e9 dans la foul\u00e9e du grand succ\u00e8s surprise de M*A*S*H*<\/em> qui permet enfin \u00e0 la carri\u00e8re d\u2019Altman de d\u00e9coller apr\u00e8s des d\u00e9buts h\u00e9sitants et laborieux vingt ans plus t\u00f4t au cin\u00e9ma et surtout \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision. Au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 70 Altman encha\u00eene les films qui sont autant de variations iconoclastes des genres hollywoodiens. Tourn\u00e9 entre un western (John McCabe<\/em>) et un film noir (Le Priv\u00e9<\/em>) qui comptent parmi les plus grandes r\u00e9ussites de Altman, Images<\/em> peut \u00eatre vu comme un film d\u2019horreur intimiste et subjectif dans la lign\u00e9e de R\u00e9pulsion<\/em> de Roman Polanski.<\/p>\n

La vari\u00e9t\u00e9 de l\u2019inspiration d\u2019Altman impressionne. Adepte d\u2019un cin\u00e9ma naturaliste, sarcastique et viril, il est \u00e9galement l\u2019auteur de films oniriques et purement mentaux comme Images <\/em>ou quelques ann\u00e9es plus tard Trois Femmes <\/em>(1977), qui plongent dans la psych\u00e9 de personnages f\u00e9minins fragiles et tourment\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Si Images<\/em> s\u2019apparente au cin\u00e9ma fantastique par son atmosph\u00e8re oppressante, ses agressions sexuelles et ses meurtres fantasm\u00e9s ou r\u00e9els, il s\u2019agit avant tout du portrait d\u2019une schizophr\u00e8ne assaillie par des visions et hallucinations terrifiantes. Altman ne cache pas sa dette envers Bergman et en particulier Persona<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Cette veine \u00e9sot\u00e9rique et psychanalytique sera beaucoup moins f\u00e9conde et aboutie que celle satirique et chorale qui retiendra davantage l\u2019attention de la critique et du public ; Images<\/em> fut un film particuli\u00e8rement boud\u00e9 et ignor\u00e9 au moment de sa sortie, m\u00eame si Susannah York (photo en t\u00eate de texte) d\u00e9crocha le prix d\u2019interpr\u00e9tation f\u00e9minine au Festival de Cannes.<\/p>\n

Pourtant, malgr\u00e9 sa singularit\u00e9, Images<\/em> rejoint les autres films d\u2019Altman des ann\u00e9es 70. A chaque fois il s\u2019agit de mettre en sc\u00e8ne le chaos du monde : un chaos social et moral la plupart du temps, qui devient ici un chaos mental, le paysage int\u00e9rieur ravag\u00e9 d\u2019une jeune femme en pleine confusion.<\/p>\n

Les effets de distanciation habituels chez le cin\u00e9aste se traduisent ici par la voix off qui raconte le conte f\u00e9\u00e9rique pour enfants, l\u2019histoire d\u2019une licorne, qu\u2019est en train d\u2019\u00e9crire l\u2019h\u00e9ro\u00efne du film recluse dans une grande b\u00e2tisse isol\u00e9e dans la campagne irlandaise. Les mythologies celtiques, la psychologie des profondeurs jungiennes, associ\u00e9es \u00e0 une esth\u00e9tique du reflet qui multiplie les images d\u00e9doubl\u00e9es participent \u00e0 un film aux confins de l\u2019exp\u00e9rimentation narrative et visuelle.<\/p>\n

Sans pr\u00e9tendre \u00e0 l\u2019efficacit\u00e9 diabolique du cin\u00e9ma de Polanski ni \u00e0 la profondeur de celui de Bergman, Images <\/em>est un film troublant qui b\u00e9n\u00e9ficie de la somptueuse photographie de Vilmos Zsigmond et de la musique angoissante de John Williams, deux partenaires artistiques que Altman retrouvera un an plus tard sur Le Priv\u00e9<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Pour accompagner la (re)d\u00e9couverte de Images<\/em> on vous conseille de vous plonger dans Robert Altman une biographie orale<\/em>, l’ouvrage le plus complet \u00e9dit\u00e9 en France sur l’auteur de Nashville<\/em>, avec une approche tr\u00e8s originale comme son titre l’indique exclusivement constitu\u00e9e d’entretiens ou de retranscriptions de discours, conversations et autres dialogues entre Altman, des critiques et certains de ces collaborateurs. Une forme polyphonique particuli\u00e8rement appropri\u00e9e pour saisir l’univers de ce cin\u00e9aste et une somme d\u00e9sormais disponible en fran\u00e7ais gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 G3J \u00e9diteur qui poursuit un travail remarquable en mati\u00e8re de livres de cin\u00e9ma (ouvrages sur Fassbinder, Kazan, Dali, Ozu et bient\u00f4t S. Ray).<\/p>\n
