CARMEN de Bizet / opéra / bande-annonce / juin 2019

Bizet's ultimate opera remains one of the most famous and performed works of the lyric repertoire. The fate of Carmen, a woman with many faces claiming and assuming her freedom, is still striking with her daring and theatricality. A dramaturgical dimension that Paul-Emile Fourny very skillfully exploits.
By transposing the work into the universe of a detective series and the world of theater, the director offers it a new modernity, pushing the characters into the most obscure entrenchments of their psyche. From the prelude, he reminds us that there is murderous madness followed by crime. In a psychiatrist's office, a patient, in a straitjacket, is accompanied by a nurse. Two bodies, in front of a theater where a company is staging Bizet's opera, are the subject of forensic surveys. Thus, Don José puts on the raincoat of a police inspector and we are transported to the post-war years.
This mise en abyme, which also looks towards Shutter Island, a novel by Dennis Lehane, allows us to question the humanity of the characters by relieving them of folklore and clichés often associated with myth. An effective approach that delivers a fascinating reading of this great classic of the French repertoire.
