Incroyable mais vrai (Incredible But True) is a terrible title, but Quentin Dupieux's Rubber left such a mark on me that I'm up for anything he's penned and directed. In this short feature, a couple buys a house with a time conduit running in the middle of it. It takes you 12 hours into the future (but not vice-versa) and has some rejuvenating effects to boot. The woman becomes obsessed with it, the man doesn't. The subplot also deals with the fear of aging and what one might do to stymie its effects, and it's pretty funny thanks to a jerkwad performance by BenoƮt Magimel. The film has a late-game extended montage that makes you feel like you fell down the conduit yourself - which I respect, even if at that points one might feel like either the script was too short or was too long and this is all a bit of a compromise. But ultimately, a fine "Twilight Zone" cautionary tale about not accepting one's age. With Dupieux, the only thing you can ever expect going in is to be surprised. 3 weeks 3 days ago -
