France TV has the good idea to offer us this month not only a Hitchcock cycle, but a Pierre Niney cycle. So there is something for everyone. The opportunity to (re)discover one of his best scores: it nestles at the heart of a delicate melodrama… Pierre Niney – Preview of the film “Mascarade” at the Pathé Wepler cinema in Paris.

A Pierre Niney cycle? A tasty initiative as the young actor’s career continues to grow year after year. We loved to hate him as an unbearable director (but… so funny) in the most unfairly snubbed César film: The Book of Solutions by Michel Gondry of course. He plays an imperfect anti-hero, which was already the case in one of his most beautiful scores, namely the crook novelist in the Riviera thriller An Ideal Man.

And we will have plenty of time to (re)discover him in the films selected by francetv: I like watching girls, one of his first major roles, Comme des Frères, a bittersweet road movie, and… A chef d work: Frantz.

Frantz is one of the most accomplished works of François Ozon, a filmmaker who nevertheless does not lack it – Eight Women, Under the Sand, In the House, My Crime… The director relates the affair between a young woman and a mysterious stranger, who claims to have known her late husband well, who disappeared in the war. But is he telling the truth?

A black & white melodrama, Frantz amazes as much by the beauty of his images as by the delicacy of the view he displays on the complexity of feelings. A great portrait of a woman like many Ozons, this tragic story gives Pierre Niney the most subtle score of his career.

We find a constant there: the propensity of the actor to embody protagonists around whom illusions, lies, smoke and mirrors revolve. Because Frantz, just like Five and An Ideal Man, immerses him in the skin of a man who plays with the truth!

A strong theme in the work of Pierre Niney, which says a lot about his propensity to deploy, seemingly out of nowhere, a real density of play. Because what is an actor if not a great illusionist? More than anything, in this melodrama, it is the emotion perceptible in a silence, a look, a hesitation, a flight, that matters.

The opportunity for the performer to deploy, in osmosis with his partner Vicky Krips, an art of interiority, of nuance. With, as always in his “acting”, a form of palpable nervousness, of throbbing fever.
