Les Damnés
La Caduta degli deiRecommended byOlivier Assayas, Clément Cogitore
The film"s page
Allemagne, 1937. Le baron Joachim von Essenbeck donne une réception dans son luxueux manoir. Pour l’occasion, toute la famille est réunie, dont la baronne, leurs enfants ainsi que le directeur des usines de von Essenbeck. Au cours de la soirée, ils apprennent que le Reichstag de Berlin vient d’être incendié et que les nazis ont pris le pouvoir. Loin de les épouvanter, la nouvelle est l’occasion pour chacun des membres (ou presque) de céder à ses pulsions de pouvoir, de séduction et de mort. La dynastie sombre alors dans une morbide décadence rouge et noire.
Notes : Les Damnés est le premier volet de la trilogie allemande de Luchino Visconti, comprenant Mort à Venise (1971) et Ludwig (1972). Le scénario s'inspire de Buddenbrook de Thomas Mann, des Possédés de Fiodor Dostoïevski et de L'Homme sans qualités de Robert Musil.
