Le créateur/The Creator




A film about a classical problems for a writer: Writer's cramp or mogigraphy.

The succesful writer Darius (Albert Dupontel) is about to advertize his new play but all of a sudden he remembers that he has forgotten how to write!
Faced with the demands of the theatre manager, the actors and others, he tries to find a remedy to his problem.
This includes positioning his bed in front of his writing desk, as he has written in the sleep before - he thinks.
He has a very nice and considerate neighbour who helps him keeping things together but does he play a more important role than that?

Another unusual film by Dupontel with good acting. He uses a group of actors he has used in most his films, meaning: Claude Perron, Michel Vuillermoz, Paul Le Person, among others.
This is understandable as they are very good.
