New Rust and Bone movie list

New movie list Rust and Bone A struggling single father helps a beautiful whale trainer recover her will to live following a terrible accident that leaves her confined to a wheelchair. Lonely and destitute, Ali (Matthias Schoenaerts) leaves the north of France for his sister's house in Antibes after becoming the sole guardian of his estranged five-year-old son Sam. When Ali lands a job as a bouncer in a nearby nightclub, things quickly start to look up for the itinerant father and son. Then one night, after breaking up a fight in the club, Ali meets the radiant Stephanie (Marion Cotillard), and slips her his number after dropping her off safely at home. Though Stephanie's position on the high end of the social spectrum makes romance an unlikely prospect for the pair, a tragic accident at Marineland robs her of her legs, and finds her reaching out in desperation to Ali. Her spirit broken by the same tragedy that took her legs, Stephanie gradually finds the courage to go on living trough transcendent moments spent with Ali -- a man with precious little pity, but an enormous love of life. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi Release Date Rust and Bone Nov 23, 2012 Limited

Review For Rust and Bone
The movie wanders off course in the final act, as if none of its three screenwriters could quite figure out how to end it. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald "Rust" has some lovely scenes - Alain carrying Stephanie out to the sea - but it seems to wander off in search of something it already has, and in wandering, it loses its way. Tom Long-Detroit News You couldn't ask for a more random relationship, but "Rust and Bone" slowly, almost magically, gives it meaning, symbolism, even a kind of symmetry. Rafer Guzman-Newsday Interesting, but emotionally and dramatically flat Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service The masterful writer-director Jacques Audiard draws vivid performances from Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts for this gripping French romance about the body and the soul. J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader When Rust and Bone tells a story of a woman's recovery from a devastating injury, it hits all the right notes, traveling a path that is poignant without being mawkish and triumphant without being saccharine. James Berardinelli-ReelViews "Rust and Bone" has heart and soul. Calvin Wilson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Rust and Bone" seems to wander unexpectedly into its heart; it feels organic in its casual unfolding, like life itself. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times Hits us harder in the head than in the heart, but packs a wallop nonetheless. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express It doesn't have the same absorbing, epic qualities of "A Prophet." But Audiard's craft is still arresting, and the film hums with beauty, vigor and blood. Stan Hall-Oregonian A disappointing use of Cotillard's estimable talent buoyed by striking visuals and inspired use of a Katy Perry song. Michael Nordine-L.A. Weekly Everybody finally sees the light on fast forward with happy endings all around, despite intense performances. While Alain eventually decides that full-time boxing is the way to go, to find dignity and get liberated from worker exploitation. Go figure. Prairie Miller-Long Island Press From one of the best directors in the world comes a powerful love story that will bust your knuckles and break your heart. Jacques Audiard, who previously delivered the mighty prison drama, A Prophet, brings his tough love to a sad romance. Brian Henry Martin-UTV A tightly-managed film that explores the instinct to survive and fight with intelligence. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy With the exceptional performances from both Matthias Schoenaerts and Marion Cotillard and the beautiful cinematography, Rust and Bone may have a few flaws but it's still brutal, intense, and surprisingly touching. Chris Sawin-Examiner.com Chemistry shared between Cotillard and Schoenaerts could be seen from space, and Audiard extracts ideal sexual tension and communication frustrations along the way. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com There are powerful moments here, but their impact is undermined by a lack of subtlety in the storytelling. Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion 'Rust and Bone' is no 'Diving Bell and the Butterfly.' It's more like 'Obelix and the Mermaid.' James Verniere-Boston Herald
