Middle class student Bob Letellier enters a new world when he meets Alain, a free-thinking rebel who, along with his group of young Parisians, has opted for a life of instant gratification instead of work and commitment. At a party, Bob meets a young woman, Mic, who appears to be just as carefree and cynical as Alain. Mic's only dream is to own a luxury car, and with Bob's help, she manages to find the money to but it. Mic's friend Clo discovers she is pregnant and, not knowing who the father is, she asks Bob to marry her. When they next meet at a party, Bob and Mic deny that they have any feelings for one another - a declaration that soon leads to tragedy...
Marcel Carné is widely regarded as one of the standard bearers of French quality cinema of the 1930s and 1940s, responsible for such masterpieces as Quai des brumes (1938) and Les Enfants du Paradis (1945). How ironic then that, in 1958, towards the end of his film-making career, he should make a film which dared to portray the attitudes and behaviour of the 1950s youth, in a way that effectively captures the mood and sentiment of the time.
Les Tricheurs was a hugely controversial film, not least because of its blatant depiction of adolescent free-love, and was even banned in some regions of France. It also received some intensely unfavourable reviews, most notably from the young hotheads on the Cahiers du cinéma such as François Truffaut who cited this film as a prime example of the decline of French cinema into mediocrity. In spite of all this negative press, the film proved to be an astonishing commercial success, attracting five million cinema-goers, and was awarded the Grand Prix du Cinéma français in 1958.
Whilst Les Tricheurs is not as flawless as Carné's earlier masterpieces, it is nonetheless a significant work, having the power to both shock and move its audience, whilst having great entertainment value. It evokes the mood of its time in a way that few French films of this period did, depicting young people as pleasure-seeking rebels, rejecting the austerity and discipline of the previous generation whilst pursuing a life without cares, responsibilities or love. Similarities with James Dean's films of the 1950s (most notably Rebel without a Cause) are apparent, although Carné's treatment of young people is far more abstract - in his film they merely symbolise a world that has lost its way, more or less victims of post-war prosperity. Although the young people in Les Tricheurs lack the authenticity to be totally credible, the film does make an important, and indeed quite disturbing point, about where the permissive society may be heading.
Much of the pleasure of the film is in the performances from its four lead actors, Jacques Charrier, Pascale Petit, Laurent Terzieff and Andréa Parisy, although only Terzieff is really convincing in his role. Marcel Carné originally considered Alain Delon and Jean-Paul Belmondo for the parts of Bob and Alain respectively, before opting for Charrier and Terzieff. As a consolation, Carné offered Belmondo a smaller part in the film - alas too small for the actor to be noticed by the public. Belmondo's breakthrough had to wait until the following year when he starred in Jean-Luc Godard's revolutionary A bout de souffle, a film which offers a very different perspective of the youth generation.
画面走毒德风，叙事氛围走克鲁苏方向，故事是预言，符号化的东西还不太够劲儿
很迷人的电影。本片可以证明，多元化的演员选用丝毫不会影响到一部本该优秀的电影。
感觉很魔幻现实 也很荒诞无力 画面不错 打光不错 高文角色坐在王座上一度以为他要唱rap
美學、光影、鏡頭語言⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️劇情連貫度&對白就搞到一個很崩塌的腔調因此⭐️中和一下就⭐️⭐️⭐️
3.5
论如何利用电影在豆瓣实现自我满足
上头self help主题，一个人从默默仰慕其他骑士们到自己战胜恐惧和软弱，美极了
科学家让雪狼在“人类监管下”“自由”；
三星半，动物们可太美了，自由的他们才是快乐的他们。
尸骨旋转镜头—大卫洛维标签 这次我更喜欢母体巨人
在绿教堂斩首
画面黑位给的是够狠，而且还不用补光，所以即使是等离子暗部也没有什么层次……但呈现的画面是完美的，音乐非常到位，该有时恰到好处一点不多，该无时干脆利落，鸦雀无声。这是个魔幻现实主义风格，剧情单纯，遐想较多。
不是所有根据真实事件改编的动物电影都是好片，根本没分清主次，大篇幅都留给了女主和其他人类，故事也没讲出吸引力
美术风格，摄影，构图都超赞。配乐有游吟骑士诗歌的感觉。唯一让我意外的是，A24作品居然讲了一个无比传统，关于骑士美德考验的故事。貌似关于贞洁（没有抵抗城堡女主人的诱惑），意志力（企图走捷径寻求巨人帮助），慷慨为善（吝啬给指路者一个硬币）的考验都失败了。泉水中寻头，要求回报，激怒了断头女士，貌似也没完全接受住考验。最后，靠魔法腰带，企图蒙混过关，又出现了虚伪成为骑士后的幻想。所幸，高文最后主动解下魔法庇护的腰带，人格上真的具备了骑士的品格。
像骑士的忠贞，不畏惧邪恶的眼神
[视]微血微露，导演<老人和枪><鬼魅浮生><彼得的龙>，亚瑟王圆桌骑士，圣诞公路片，坎妹一人分饰两角，<猎鹰与冬兵>女反，<对马岛>狐，摄影不错
画面镜头满分，剧情的话可能是改编自小说，影视化处理的过于意识流了。
为啥找个印度人演高文。。。画面音乐都一流，就是过程略无聊了，还不如更往奇异惊悚上靠。。
看到后面还是越看越迷人的，有魔幻史诗的质感，就是还可以再荒诞一点。
年度视觉奇观 但对文本指涉还是不太理解 以及真的好可坎妹
