The Great Man

ڈرامہ

Markov and Hamilton are fellow French Legionnaire's at the end of their posting in Afghanistan. An ambush results in an abdication of duty-despite it stemming from an act of fidelity. Markov joined the Legion as a foreign refugee, hoping to gain his French citizenship and provide a better life for his young son. Ultimately, the complications of immigration and legal status takes a heartbreaking turn but also a primal urge to do right by those who have committed their lives to saving others'.

I just had the good fortune to see this film at TIFF and must say what a pleasure it was to attend the screening. A very moving human drama, beautifully shot and directed.And great to see another terrific performance from Jeremie Renier, who is one of France's most accomplished actors.He seems to inhabit every role he takes on. The other two leads, Surho Sugaipov and Ramzan Idiev were exceptional as well.From the start, you are drawn into the world of these characters in the Foreign Legion, and as the story progresses, you can't help but feel involved in their lives. And that is the skill of the director,to bring the audience into intimacy with these three and the matters of their hearts . A great success and I truly look forward to more work from this director!!!

This a very slow and poor movie, dealing with post-war trauma recovery, friendship and the difficulty to be a real, great man in complex situation. Not bad, could have been interesting but simply dul.

Hamilton and Markov are inseparable buddies in the Foreign Legion. They are also young enough to disobey orders and get themselves in trouble. They stray off their Afghan patrol route and, sure enough, Hamilton is seriously wounded in an ambush. Markov carries him back to their post for emergency treatment, thereby saving his life. When their enlistment is up they are mustered out of the service, and Hamilton is home free in Paris. Markov is also in Paris, but not home free - his family are unregistered aliens and are sent home to Chechnya. He and his 8 year-old son are left to shift for themselves - uneasily, as his son does not remember him or like him very much. At this point there was still a tepid hour to go, and I wished for the element of tension produced when the two were on patrol in Afghanistan. What follows is a soap opera-type story, all of it told in one tone of voice, much like reading a letter. There are no emotional highs or lows to arrest the audience or to give us a rooting interest. And so, we watch from a detached distance and have no need to get involved. I fault the director, with whom I am unfamiliar. There were 5 audience members at my showing, and Ms. Petit will have to improve if her future audiences are to increase. The background music was grating but the tone had been set. I was thinking about the bus schedule for the trip home.

What a tremendous little film. So powerful, so poignant, so gripping. The meaning of true feelings by other ways than words. I almost wept during some sequences. A film about friendship, more exactly the brotherhood of arms, the strongest among all...The one one never forgets. The tale of two ex soldiers from the Foreign Legion who, back to civil life, have to face the death of one of them. The latest has a Young son who becomes an orphan, because he has no mother either. I won't tell you any more, but you can guess what follows. Such a shame that this little gem has not more audiences. We were only tow in the theatre. Two, for God's sake !!!! Because of those pricks who prefer blockbusters garbage. Shame on them. Directed by a female. Women who have a true sense of feelings and the way to show them. And although I love authentic brutal, bloody manhood films, females ones touch me too...
