<\/em>Bullitt <\/em>(1968) <\/em>est diffus\u00e9 ce soir sur ARTE \u00e0 20h45. Ce classique du polar am\u00e9ricain ne saurait se r\u00e9duire \u00e0 sa spectaculaire course poursuite en voitures d\u00e9but\u00e9e dans les rues de San Francisco et qui lui assura une c\u00e9l\u00e9brit\u00e9 imm\u00e9diate et internationale. Encore aujourd\u2019hui Bullitt <\/em>s\u00e9duit surtout par la stylisation de sa mise en sc\u00e8ne et la caract\u00e9risation de son h\u00e9ros\u00a0: que se cache-t-il derri\u00e8re l\u2019attitude monolithique de Steve McQueen, alias \u00ab\u00a0Mister Cool\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0? Rien peut-\u00eatre. Une enqu\u00eate pr\u00e9texte \u00e0 base de faux t\u00e9moin \u00e0 prot\u00e9ger et de tueurs de la mafia est l\u2019occasion d\u2019une fiction comportementaliste autour du lieutenant de police Frank Bullitt, aussi d\u00e9termin\u00e9 qu\u2019\u00e9nigmatique. Ce r\u00f4le a beaucoup contribu\u00e9 au mythe personnel de la star Steve McQueen, d\u2019abord chasseur de primes pour la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision (la s\u00e9rie western Au nom de la loi<\/em>) et qui devint de la fin des ann\u00e9es 60 aux ann\u00e9es 70 la plus grande ic\u00f4ne virile du cin\u00e9ma hollywoodien.<\/p>\n

\"Bullitt\"<\/a>

Bullitt<\/p><\/div>\n

Bullitt est un type insondable qui ballade son inexpressivit\u00e9 et sa pugnacit\u00e9 zen au milieu des cadavres et des circonvolutions d\u2019une histoire faite de mensonges et de faux-semblants et qui semble ne jamais perdre son sang-froid, m\u00eame dans les bras de sa ma\u00eetresse (la superbe Jacqueline Bisset) constern\u00e9e par son mutisme\/autisme. Pourrait-on pousser le bouchon un peu trop loin et parler d\u2019incommunicabilit\u00e9 et de crise de l\u2019image action au sujet de Bullitt<\/em>\u00a0? Et si Antonioni avait r\u00e9alis\u00e9 Bullitt<\/em> \u00e0 San Francisco entre Blow Up<\/em> \u00e0 Londres et Zabriskie Point<\/em> dans la Vall\u00e9e de la mort\u00a0?<\/p>\n

Ne r\u00eavons pas. Plus modestement, le film est sign\u00e9 Peter Yates, cin\u00e9aste anglais recrut\u00e9 par Steve McQueen qui avait appr\u00e9ci\u00e9 son polar Trois Milliards d\u2019un coup<\/em> (Robbery<\/em>) tourn\u00e9 \u00e0 Londres l\u2019ann\u00e9e pr\u00e9c\u00e9dente. Cette premi\u00e8re exp\u00e9rience hollywoodienne d\u2019une jeune cin\u00e9aste europ\u00e9en aux commandes d\u2019un film noir est \u00e0 comparer avec celle, plus ouvertement moderniste, de John Boorman et Le Point de non-retour<\/em> (Point Blank<\/em>, 1967). La musique de Lalo Schifrin est indissociable du succ\u00e8s de Bullitt<\/em>, au m\u00eame titre que sa longue poursuite en voitures. En 1970 Robert Altman r\u00e9alise \u00e0 Houston Brewster McCloud<\/em>, une fable satirique dans laquelle il se moque du film de Peter Yates et met en sc\u00e8ne un flic particuli\u00e8rement stupide et inefficace nomm\u00e9 Frank Shaft.<\/p>\n

Mais Bullitt <\/em>a aussi connu une post\u00e9rit\u00e9 plus flatteuse\u00a0: French Connection<\/em> (1971) de William Friedkin reprend la formule gagnante du film de Yates\u00a0: souci de r\u00e9alisme, enqu\u00eate m\u00e9ticuleuse, br\u00e8ves explosions de violence et morceau de bravoure sur quatre roues. Plus proche de nous, Nicolas Winding Refn et Ryan Gosling (Drive<\/em>, 2001) n\u2019ont pas cach\u00e9 leur dette \u00e0 Peter Yates et \u00e0 Steve McQueen.<\/p>\n

Enfin, Peter Yates, au sein d\u2019une carri\u00e8re in\u00e9gale et qui d\u00e9concerte par son \u00e9clectisme (passer de Krull <\/em>\u00e0 L\u2019Habilleur<\/em>, la m\u00eame ann\u00e9e, il faut le faire) a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 un chef-d\u2019\u0153uvre du cin\u00e9ma criminel am\u00e9ricain\u00a0: ce n\u2019est pas Bullitt<\/em>, c\u2019est le m\u00e9connu, \u00ab\u00a0low profile\u00a0\u00bb et pourtant extraordinaire Les Copains d\u2019Eddie Coyle<\/em> (The Friends of Eddie Coyle<\/em>, 1973) avec l\u2019une des plus belles interpr\u00e9tations de Robert Mitchum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
