Un homme à la hauteur (Up for Love)

Instantaneous infatuation, irreducible desire, a cell phone forgotten, a cell phone returned, diminutive size coaxing plaudits and spurns, but this little man has true rapture at stake, and callous dismissals don't exacerbate, her love lies a pleading in tense social fashions, observations of others conscripting her passions, but perhaps love indeed will outwit prejudice, and two trusty love birds will clashin' outfit.

Marrow.

Bequeathed in leisure roam.

Lol!

An architectural man with a soul enriched by secular seraphim courts an ethereal beauty while redesigning an opera house.

She's enamoured but his size leads others to stultify their secretions.

Caught between thriving abundance and lowly bigotry, Diane Duchȇne (Virginie Efira) must decide where she stands.

 Alexandre (Jean Dujardin) has been there before and knows all to well the follies of love pending.

Not this time?

Laurent Tirard's Un homme à la hauteur (Up for Love) examines the best and worst of the social to serendipitously purolate illustrations of fettered romance.

As a thoughtful reflection on love flourishing as it's surrounded by stupidity, Un homme à la hauteur works, but the mechanics, the scenes and sequences required to sturdily uphold its positive vision, lack stamina, and at times the film seems like it's more concerned with awkwardly depicting Alexandre as a little person than crafting long lasting memorable situations.

Well, I am remembering a lot of the film right now, but because it's cheesy, not striking.

I suppose its blend of the superlative and the shallow claustrophobically stifles as it seeks to astoundingly uplift.

Some people are like that though, it doesn't shy away from enervating realities, but if Diane had dealt with these realities with more strength Clos la Coutale they would have been less enervating themselves.

Although the transformative aspect might have been lost as well, along with its corresponding polished grit/redemption (better to have a character succumb them overcome or simply strum?).

Aegis reciprocated mellotron.

So so.
