This guy is soon 30yo why do people in Quebec think he is special? he isn't a wise teenager, but a late-20s hipster making all these mediocre overrated movies.
He is actually still 25, he's turning 26 in a few days. That's mid-twenties and hardly 'soon 30 y/o' just saying.
Anyway people see him as a 'young genius' because he started making succesful movies at like 20 y/0.
I'm not defending him, I'm actually indifferent to him.
I wish I could eat you so I could vomit you
He's barely even a genius. He just makes the same movies - oversaturated perfume commercials about young LGBT people having severe first world problems - and repackages them into different scenarios every time. The only ones of his films I could see some of the "young genius" labels in are "Laurence Anyways", "I Killed My Mother" and Suzanne Clément's portions in "Mommy". Apart from that, he's another new queer challenger who can't rise up to the leagues of Van Sant or Almodóvar.
shareUnderrated talent!!!!!!!
shareHow is he underrated? He's been recognized by countless film festivals around the world as a cinematic wunderkind. I may not agree with his current place on the cinematic food chain, but underrated is the last word on the planet that would apply to Xavier Dolan.
shareJudging from your laughable voting history, there is no way in hell I can take anything you say about film seriously.
The practice of gluing the performances of two different actors together needs to come to an end.
Dolan has won a Cesar, two Genies, a Juno, a Canadian Screen Award and six awards at Cannes. Plus one of his movies was submitted for Academy Award consideration.
What does you resume look like?
And failed to be nominated in favor of an absurdist revenge fantasy that has more subtlety and understanding of human complexity.
shareYou sure do have an obsessive dislike for Dolan.
