The Dreamers Review

The Dreamers is a movie that's a real work of art. It carries a very deeper meaning and pushes the limit of the audience and shows the real beauty and art. Undoubtedly the movie is great but the plot can seem a bit provokable to some viewers. It shows the complexity of different relations that people share with each other which is normal for those people who are involved in it but may seem unusual to others. There were a lot of sensual scenes in the movie that were really unnecessary, definitely could have been skipped. Eva Green as Isabelle and Louis Garrel as Theo did full justice to their roles. Indeed, the cast of the movie is brilliantly picked, I cannot imagine any other actor or actress playing roles better than the original cast. Truly, not a very big fan of the movie's climax, seems like it was just dragged.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The scene where Isabelle's hair catches fire happened unplanned. Eva Green was supposed to lean forward and kiss Matthew goodnight but accidentally caught her hair on fire on the candle on the table. She didn't let it worry her and acted so natural that Bernardo Bertolucci decided to leave it in as he felt it perfectly anticipated the theme that things are about to get a bit crazy.

In order to prevent himself from getting "too excited," Michael Pitt has said he would dip "himself" into a glass of ice water before his graphic love scenes with Eva Green.

To make the actors feel comfortable and natural in the film's nude scenes, the director Bernardo Bertolucci would encourage them to be totally nude long before the actual shot so they could get used to be naked around each other. Source: Director's commentary on DVD

There were scenes in the script depicting much more blatant sexual relations between the characters of Matthew and Theo, but they were not filmed. Director Bernardo Bertolucci said, "The gay sex was in the first script, but I had a feeling that it was just too much stuff. It became redundant." Actor Michael Pitt said in an interview, "It was in the script and it's what I'd signed to do. But they said we weren't going to do that."

Leonardo DiCaprio was offered the role of Matthew, but turned it down because he was in pre-production with The Aviator (2004). Michael Pitt, who bears considerable resemblance to DiCaprio, was cast in his place.

Popular Dialogues

"Matthew: Yes, I'm drunk. And you're beautiful. And tomorrow morning, I'll be sober but you'll still be beautiful."

"Theo: Papa's full of shit. Matthew: I think you're lucky. Um, I wish my parents were that nice. Isabelle: Other people's parents are *always* nicer than our own, and yet for some reason, our own grandparents are always nicer than other people's."
