Jacques Brel, fou de vivre

Name: Jacques Brel, fou de vivre
Genre: Documentary, Music
Released: 03 Feb 2017
Rating: 7.70
Cast: Jacques Brel, Chloé Réjon, Arthur H.

Presents archival material as well as interviews with those who were close to Jacques Brel, who died way too young, at age 49. Jacques Brel sings "Madeleine" over the opening credits of this film and immediately the audience is drawn into the intense theatricality of his performance. Left without a choice, they follow his lead, join the chanson and are left sweaty and breathless, just like Brel. Philippe Kohly, a documentary filmmaker who is renowned for profiling artists, created a fascinating portrait of the legendary singer of Flemish descent who became a master of French chanson.
