Excellent, what happened last weekend in Montignac to celebrate the 70 anniversary of the discovery of Lascaux! Lots of beautiful people and thousands of visitors a treat. I take this opportunity to salute all the authors, researchers, facilitators, directors, teachers found or met on this occasion. It was a real pleasure.
important moment: I had the privilege of seeing a preview of the film by Jacques Malaterre Ao the last Neanderthal. Of course, I was a little worried, like all film adaptations of novels we liked. Well, I was not disappointed, far from it! I found this really wonderful film, full of action and especially emotion, played by outstanding actors. You tell me maybe I'm biased because I am passionate about Neanderthals. Quite the contrary: I am even more difficult to meet than I am fond of the subject. Yes, the storylines of the film moves a lot from that of the novel, but the bulk is here and there: a strong and clear about the Neanderthals and beyond, on all humanity. As the movie comes out in theaters September 29th that I will not go into a detailed critique yet, I will return in a future post just before the official release. But I can say that, what is the image of the Neanderthals to the general public, there will clearly before and after Ao. And I can only urge you, if you have the possibility to go to one of the many previews to be held across France throughout the summer.
In any case, by September 29, you'll have plenty of time to read the wonderful trilogy Marc Klapczynski on the odyssey of the last Neanderthal, whose Ao the old man, who inspired the film, is the first installment. If you do not know this series of novels, you can discover by visiting the brand new website has just been posted HERE , where you will find very little topo-made with each novel and read excerpts illustrated in music. The reader is also none other than Claire Troilo, author of the album Youth Ao little Neanderthal which will be discussed too soon.
icing on the cake, I just loop a series of illustrations for the youth version of the novel Ao, which will be released by Editions Auberon in September. The image above and one below are the first two excerpts that I'm discovering. There will be others!
Enjoy!
