The enormous success enjoyed by Les Choristes was surprising to critics. But this success is logical given the political and ideological climate in France. The collapse of utopian ideals and ideas, along with the pessimism reighing in France, explains in great part why the « general public » has so favorably received films (such as Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain and Être et avoir among others) that offer a mythified image of the past as something consoling and reassuring. Analysis of Les Choristes produces insights about this phenomenon. |
