Liberté (2019)
Madame de Dumeval, the Duke of Tesis and the Duke of Wand, libertines expelled from the Puritan court of Louis XVI, sought the support of the legendary Duke of Walchen, a seducer and free thinker from Germany, alone in a country where hypocrisy and false virtue reigned. Their mission: to export libertinage to Germany, a philosophy of enlightenment based on the rejection of morality and authority but also, and above all, to find a safe place to continue their misguided games.

I liked the setting, lightning, and Serra's own rhythm and framing, which all successfully contribute to the mood and the atmosphere. I also think that it's about today's pleasure driven hedonistic-nihilistic societies, and the impossibility of fulfilling that desire. Yet unlike his previous movies, I didn't see a search for any "beyond" in the images, nor a bigger whole than the parts. This could be the same movie in 90 minutes as well. I am disappointed.

On the impossibility of a 'utopia of desire'. Libertines gather in the dark outside the confines of normal society to engage in erotic activity, only to find themselves frustrated and/or humiliated and ultimately unfulfilled. While it's perhaps overlong, a common Serra failing, Liberte plays loose and free in a way that is rare in contemporary cinema, and it's less a commentary on the 'decadent aristocracy' than it is a sober reflection on failed contemporary mores.

I found it rather tame after all the warnings about its provocative nature in this day and age in with much more depraved stuff on any pornsite. The real discussion about this movie is if Serra really needs over 2 hours to say what he wants to say or that the movie gets way too repetitive. And if he has something to say at all or the movie is all about the experience of the night. In this later Serra succeeds tremendously, cause he knows damn well how to shoot and how long to hold a shot.

(TIFF '19) What 'Salo' was to the depiction of sex as an allegory for fascistic control, Serra's stunningly captured, utterly surreal nighttime odyssey of 18th c. libertines throwing themselves into the throes of animalistic libertinage is to the aristocracy. Poupard captures the intense interplay of sexual exhibitionism and voyeurism in fragmentary ways that mystify: under the cover of trees, of shadows, of palanquins, of bodies on bodies as the rococo mise-en-scéne progressively decays.
