Things I Like, Things I Don't Like

Dominique Pinon, somewhere between faded sepia tones and black-and-white, lays out life’s small details as if jotting them down in a notebook. The silence of the early morning, the scent of fresh coffee, or that sudden sense of revulsion caused by a crowd of people. Everything is a matter of balance. In this short comedy, Jean-Pierre Jeunet filters the absurdity of everyday life and its simple pleasures through the mind of a single man. He makes no grand claims; he simply focuses on memories, moments of anger, and moments of pleasure.
