● Wildlife: A season ardent , drama, Paul Dano, 1 hour and 45 minutes.

In endorsing the range of director, actor Paul Dano fits a harrowing story of Richard Ford. With Wildlife: A season ardent , he brushes the monotony of provincial, reconstructs the period with an accuracy to Todd Haynes, lighting reminiscent of Edward Hopper. A kid contemplates his childhood, which disappears in the middle of the boxes coloured in the supermarket, at the sound of the 33-towers placed on the pick-up, surrounded by melancholy. Dano runs a risk: his first film is likely to be its best. There are dangers more embarrassing.
