The Bigamist (Rétrospective Ida Lupino)
The Bigamist
USA 1953 | Ida Lupino | vostFR | 79’ | 35mm | Cast : Joan Fontaine, Ida Lupino, Edmund Gwenn
À San Francisco, Harry et Eve sont mariés mais n’ont pu avoir d’enfant. Ils demandent à adopter. Mais l’enquête préalable met à jour la vie secrète du mari...
« Le regard de la cinéaste, à la fois limpide et profondément mûr, fait face à la fatalité de la maternité, en tant que destin social des femmes, et au matérialisme de l’institution du mariage. » (Critikat).
« Might be Lupino’s best. Not just because she also stars (opposite Joan Fontaine, who was married to her ex-husband Collier Young at the time — what an interesting shoot that must have been) but because her treatment of an adulterous husband is so even-handed, so sympathetic, you don’t just feel for him; you understand him. So it is with all great works of cinema. » (Boulder Weekly)
« The Bigamist is about sexual infidelity – that driving force of the noir. Is a taut, muscular, controlled picture, and Lupino shapes all three performances with pure mastery. » (The Guardian).
