Director Quentin Dupieux engages in a Twitter feud with a film critic after a review of his film 'Reality', leading to a discussion on the role of critics in the industry.
“you’re full of hate and frustrations. you should take a break,” directoronce tweeted at me, immediately following my review of his 2014 film “Reality.” In another world, someone might have advised him against picking a fight with a film critic. You know, never quarrel with a man who buys ink by the barrel, and all that. But I didn’t mind. I’d said some harsh things about his movie. Seems only fair that he could retort. ,” the title character is a critic .
There exists an unspoken contract between the actors and the audience when people go to the theater. You buy your ticket, and you sit in silence while the cast does its thing on stage. Laughter is encouraged, applause welcome, coughing permissible. But noisily unwrapping cough drops is not. And talking is strictly verboten. If you can’t stand the play — and we’ve all been there — kindly wait till intermission and then take your leave, rather than spoiling the show for others.
Yannick reluctantly exits the theater, but returns a few moments later after collecting his coat from the lobby. With the weapon in hand, he takes control of the situation once again, treating the actors and the audience as his hostages. Real-world audiences can leave whenever they like … but why would they? Dupieux has created a delightfully subversive situation.
