C.R.A.Z.Y. Clip
April 3rd, 2008 by Andre Soares
World Cinema Clips: The film clip below, posted by agogika on youtube, is from the excellent Canadian comedy-drama C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005), a major box-office hit in Quebec, and the winner of 11 Genies and 13 Jutra awards in 2005.
The tale of a young man (superbly played by Marc-André Grondin) who discovers both rock and roll and his homosexual tendencies at about the same time — much to the displeasure of his traditionalist father (Michel Côté) — C.R.A.Z.Y. offers a healthy mix of humor, drama, and social commentary.
Directed by Jean-Marc Vallée from a screenplay by Vallée and François Boulay.
Strangely, C.R.A.Z.Y. failed to nab a best foreign-language film Oscar nomination (Canada had submitted it) and to find distribution south of the border. The film is, however, available on DVD in the US, and it has been shown on American cable television.
