Film sur les les non-dits, les regards, les sentiments. Belles photographies et cadrages. Très bonnes interprétations. Très loins des blockbusters 😉

Synopsis

Three stories concerning the relationships between adult children, their somewhat distant parent (or parents), and each other: a reclusive father visited by his grown children in the US, sisters visiting their novelist mother in Dublin, and adult twins called back to their Paris apartment to address a family tragedy.

Community Reviews

Viewers have mixed feelings about 'Father Mother Sister Brother,' appreciating its deep dive into complex family dynamics through three distinct stories, yet some criticize its slow pace and perceived lack of depth. The film's visual style and the performances, particularly in the emotionally richer third story, are highlights. However, the minimal dialogue and slow narrative progression have left some viewers disengaged and disappointed.

👍 Exceptional acting and visually impressive.

👎 May feel slow and underwhelming for some.

Wes Anderson's sharp characters and symmetry, but quieter, less spoken and more ambiguous. Everything is said in the silences, by the mimicries and mannerisms.
