For me, "Leolo", of course!
It's one of those movies I had to see twice to get the full jest of it. One has to be open and insightful to understand how vulgar, shallow and grotesque it appears on the surface, but has deep seated humanity...thoughtful, beautiful and exceedingly morose as well. Pitiful and sad. The movie is human internal conflict through and through.
With all of these facets of life that mostly dwell on struggle, toil, mental illness and despair, the film manages to insert some very, shall I say, "interesting" humor.
I think it's a masterpiece. And a puzzle with a few parts missing.
Leave it to the French Canadians!
If you haven't watched it, and have a yearning for something that breaks the boundaries of most film norms, I highly recommend you give this a look-see. Bazaar, but makes perfect sense.
