Garçon Stupide
Time Out says
Emotionally stunted 20-year-old Loic (Chatagny) spends his days at a
mind-numbing job and his evenings chatting online with men. Then a personal-ad
respondent helps the young man identify his latent artistic goals and nurture a
yearning to be something more than a "stupid boy." A mash-up of fact and fiction
partly based on director Lionel Baier's and Chatagny's own life experiences,
Garçon Stupide is a minor-key curiosity with a rough-edged documentary
aesthetic. Baier may lose viewers in some strange interludes and an inexplicable
car accident, but Chatagny's sweet and uninhibited performance holds this uneven
film together.
