Bertrand Blier, the ideal filmography of a non-conformist, according to Éric Neuhoff

We hope that, as in Buffet froidshe will have had the features of Carole Bouquet. Death owed him that much. We forget her too often: she lurked in all of Bertrand Blier's films. He must have even found that she was slow in coming. This joker was a pessimist like Cioran, from whom he borrowed a penchant for sharp formulas. This daddy's boy started by casting his father Bernard in a strange thriller, If I were a spy (1967).

Previously, the man who was once Georges Lautner's assistant had sharpened his first skills with a documentary on youth, Hitler don't know (1963). His name then appeared in bookstores, on the cover of his novel, The Valseuses (1972). It was gone. Scandal would be his faithful companion. The weekly Minute talk about“a cart of rubbish”. The expression will be mischievously used in the publisher's advertising posters. The screen adaptation doesn't drag on.
