Review of Léolo (1992) by Jose Miguel G — 24 Aug 2017

Writer and director Jean-Claude Lauzon offers a rather gruesome and explicit drama, but with the benefit of an intriguing plot, a unique visual style and a beautiful script, this Canadian-French take on childhood could be a delight for the lovers of romanticism, and whether or not you're into its particular harsh point of view, the sole film's bizarre approach into reality and imagination should be enough to keep the viewer hooked in its premise.
