Gala « Encore ! »

About This Movie

Gala « Encore ! » is an interesting blend of comedy and personal reinvention. It follows Marie-Thérèse Porchet, who's been out of work for a couple of years, which happens to resonate with so many people post-pandemic. The tone feels light yet introspective, and the atmosphere is filled with a mix of desperation and hope. The pacing is quite engaging, as we see her dive headfirst into the gala planning process, inviting comedians from various backgrounds that bring a delightful diversity to the humor. I appreciate how it tackles themes of resilience and the search for purpose, and the performances are lively, capturing that essence of camaraderie among artists. It's a distinctive take on starting over, and the practical effects of live comedy on stage really add to its charm.
