      Audience Member The story is written very well that one doesn't know that they are being enchanted by the characters in the film. Laurent (Milan Mauger), the protagonist is a man that is fixated on the character of his dead father who died when he was two. Laurent is taken under the wing of his professor Vapuer (Thierry Lhermitte), who uncannily to Laurent, bears many traits of his deceased father. The vigor that gushes forth from this plot hook is enchanting and very curious. I'd almost like to say that you'd be on tenterhooks to discover if Laurent's doubts could be true, but the pacing of this film doesn't let it get to that, but instead coaxes you into the relationship of Laurent with the people around him. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Belgique, 1955, Laurent Matagne a 17 ans et s est fait renvoyer de son ecole. Sa mere decide alors de le mettre en internat dans un nouvel institut. Apres de nombreuses vacheries et bagarres avec son camarade Boulette, ces deux la deviendront grands copains. Son autre ouverture se fera au cours de francais : le prof surnomme Vapeur va le forcer a se trouver un style propre en redaction et va meme susciter en lui une vocation d ecrivain. Mais ce dernier a egalement un grand vide : il recherche des informations sur son son pere disparu a la guerre, que sa mere refuse de lui donner vu qu il l avait quittee pour une autre. Laurent va voir en Vapeur de nombreuses similitudes avec ce paternel absent. Son ami Boulette et lui vont alors commencer une enquete. Voici une tres agreable comedie dramatique, avec des personnages interessants et bien joues, un chouette cadre et une belle toile de fonds. J ai beaucoup aime les scenes dans les salles de classe, et le lien entre Matagne et Vapeur. Thierry Lhermitte interprete cet enseignant brillant aux methodes particulieres pour reveiller les talents de ses eleves. Le mystere de la paternite est bien garde jusqu au bout et nous laisse faire des allers-retours dans nos decisions sur ce point. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
