Une com\u00e9die ind\u00e9pendante am\u00e9ricaine pas comme les autres sort aujourd\u2019hui en exclusivit\u00e9 au Cin\u00e9ma du Panth\u00e9on \u00e0 Paris, distribu\u00e9e par Why Not Productions. Somebody Up There Likes Me<\/em> de Bob Byington fut l\u2019une des belles d\u00e9couvertes de la comp\u00e9tition internationale du Festival del film Locarno en 2012, o\u00f9 il remporta le Prix sp\u00e9cial du jury. Natif du Nebraska, install\u00e9 \u00e0 Austin, Texas, inconnu en Europe, Byington r\u00e9alise des films depuis 1996. Il pratique un sens de l\u2019humour existentiel, pince-sans-rire et volontiers cynique, profond\u00e9ment h\u00e9t\u00e9rosexuel, plus un sens du romanesque et du style qui le hisse bien au-dessus des productions am\u00e9ricaines habituelles, ind\u00e9pendantes ou pas. J’ai d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu le film trois fois, avec un plaisir accru \u00e0 chaque nouvelle projection.<\/p>\n

\"Somebody<\/a>

Keith Poulson dans Somebody Up There Likes Me<\/p><\/div>\n

Somebody Up There Likes Me <\/em>a le m\u00eame titre qu\u2019un film de Robert Wise sur la boxe avec Paul Newman (Marqu\u00e9 par la haine<\/em>, 1956) mais la ressemblance s\u2019arr\u00eate l\u00e0. Le film de Bob Byington est une fable sur la vie d\u2019un homme qui ne vieillit pas, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 une valise bleue, sorte de bo\u00eete de Pandore tout droit sorti d\u2019En quatri\u00e8me vitesse <\/em>de Robert Aldrich. En plusieurs chapitres espac\u00e9s de cinq ans, on le voit affronter les affres de la r\u00e9ussite sociales, de la vie conjugale, de l\u2019adult\u00e8re, de la paternit\u00e9 avec toujours le m\u00eame d\u00e9tachement r\u00eaveur et l\u2019allure d\u2019un \u00e9ternel adolescent. Ce h\u00e9ros justement nomm\u00e9 Max Youngman est interpr\u00e9t\u00e9 par Keith Poulson qui a des faux airs de Dorian Gray (ou d\u2019Oscar Wilde, voir photo) tandis que son ami est interpr\u00e9t\u00e9 par Nick Offerman, r\u00e9gulier de la bande \u00e0 Byington mais surtout un comique extr\u00eamement populaire de la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision am\u00e9ricaine. Autour d\u2019eux un essaim de belles et jeunes actrices de la sc\u00e8ne ind\u00e9pendante de la com\u00e9die am\u00e9ricaine mais il faudrait surtout signaler la petite brunette Stephanie Hunt (voir photo \u00e0 la une de ce texte) dans le r\u00f4le de la baby-sitter qui devient la ma\u00eetresse de Max (et plus tard tombe enceinte de son fils)\u00a0: sans doute la fille la plus sexy vue sur un \u00e9cran de cin\u00e9ma depuis longtemps, sa nonchalance sensuelle et sa disponibilit\u00e9, sa beaut\u00e9 aussi simple que frappante donnent au film quelques-unes des ses meilleures sc\u00e8nes. La mise en sc\u00e8ne proc\u00e8de par sayn\u00e8tes, avec des cadres tr\u00e8s stylis\u00e9s et color\u00e9s mais sans jamais trop enfermer les acteurs dans un principe formel trop \u00e9troit. Wes Anderson n\u2019est pas le seul dandy texan, il faut d\u00e9sormais compter avec Bob Byington, beaucoup moins gentil mais tout aussi dr\u00f4le et talentueux.<\/p>\n
