      The fascinating thing about fate is the unexpected twist.

      "Suicide Shop" is an animated musical directed by Patrice LeConte for the first time in 2012. After a quick check, his films are very diverse, ranging from exploring madmen and gender issues to quietly deconstructing human wisdom and civilization. Involving sensitive topics and actively discussing human nature, this film is not only subversive, but also family-oriented, French-style opera, dark humor between characters, vivid characters and style of painting, which is really...

      Want to commit suicide? Be a foodie

      The poem-like lyrics reveal the oppressive and hopeless evil taste of death, and it is also insightful to die in a different way. Everyone is alive but dead, but all this is turned into joy at the end by the sudden crepe. Song and Dance. The French used their romantic cells to write a life-saving story of food. The plot of the mourning is not complete, and it does not follow the original routine. A bunch of negative energy that I have prepared, waiting for it to explode when it reaches the...

      Un amalgame mièvre et nauséabond entre le macabre burtonnien et la comédie musicale disneyenne. Il vaut mieux vite le fermer, ce magasin peu inspiré avec ses pseudo fantasmagories appuyées par des chansons...

    Background creation

    In the eyes of Patrice Leconte, "The Suicide Shop" cannot be made into a live-action film at all. Only animation can present its black humor and imagination to the audience. He also added singing and dancing elements to the story and made a "sing and dance comedy". The youngest son who looks at everything with "rose glasses" optimistically contrasts with the people in this melancholy town.
    "The Suicide Shop" invested 12 million euros,...
