  • Avis laissé en France le 27 mai 2014
    Je voulais compléter ma collection Aronofsky en bon fanboy.
    Le livre est vraiment beau : le papier est d'excellente facture et les impressions parfaites mettant bien en valeur les dessins de Kent Williams.
    Cette version brochée est vraiment excellente : aucun besoin de plier le livre pour pouvoir lire au centre des doubles pages.
    Bonne lecture !

    Fan du film, j'ai commandé ce livre à un prix certes élevé, mais je l'aime beaucoup. Il y a une copie du script original en anglais. Le livre est essentiellement composé de photos.

    Íntimamente relacionado con la película homónima y sus vicisitudes de producción, es especialmente interesante como complemento de ésta. En tapa blanda, papel de calidad, buena impresión y color. Sobre el trabajo artístico en sí: "es cuestión de gustos". Bastante recomendable.

    5,0 sur 5 étoiles Beautiful in every way.
    Avis laissé aux États-Unis le 26 décembre 2015
    I have read many reviews of the movie that this graphic novel is based on. I wll admit that it takes several viewings to understand the plot. This book, which was written when production stopped on the film when the large studio pulled the plug on filming, really helped me to understand the whole concept, even though it does not exactly match the movie. ***Then there is the artwork! By far, this is the most beautiful graphic novel I have come across. Kudos to the illustrator. This is something that I enjoy reading over and over again. It touches on all human emotions without making me feel that I am being led by the nose to feel them. I believe that every reader will get something personal from the story. I can't recommend this book more highly.

    5,0 sur 5 étoiles Great "adaptation" companion piece for a wonderfully visual movie
    Avis laissé au Royaume-Uni le 18 janvier 2016
    Great "adaptation" companion piece for a wonderfully visual movie, starring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weitz, spanning three eras in a couples reincarnated lives and telling an epic story of love conquering fate and time. Drawn by Kent Williams, the artist on, amongst other things, a comic miniseries starring Wolverine and Havok of the Uncanny X-Men called Meltdown, set during the Australian Outback years (believed by most comic officianados as the pinnacle of the mutant story) as coincidence would have it Wolverine is another character played by Hugh Jackman.

    Full disclosure: I love The Fountain.

    From the first time I viewed the movie right through to today, Darren Aronofsky's least recognized movie has been at the top of my favourite movie list. Everything about the film is fantastic.

    This isn't a review of the film, though. This is to discuss the films' sister project.

    Both the version of the film that we were given and the graphic novel were born out of the death of the original film project, scheduled to star Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. After a time, and with a scaled down, "indie" script, as Aronofsky himself describes it, he began a graphic novel version of the film so that even if the film was never made, he would be able to share the creations he and his crew had thus far produced.

    This graphic novel is as ethereal and heartfelt as the movie it is connected to, telling us the same story through a different lens, in a way. The plot is no different here, but we are given more time to look at it in a new way. This novel isn't the film, not exactly, but neither is it so divorced so as to be unrecognizable. The main characters are the same, and while there are some slight differences in plot (the death of Father Silva in The Conquistador's story), as well as a few extra "scenes" one feels might have been cut from the film for timing issues, we are treated to the same procession of events, and the same glorious conclusion.

    Gone are the concessions to the rating system. Nudity, blood and language abound much more in this version than in the film. It might be detracting to some, but it is honest in its approach, and never crude for the sake of it. The art is tasteful and beautiful in an almost abstract way. Pages go from mostly black and white inking to explosions of colour. The characters are drawn with a sense of life that is rarely on paper as convincing as it is here.

    At the end of it all, however, the same messages are delivered to us. The same emotions are brought front and center. The same passion is displayed to us, through a page instead of a roll of film. And through this wonderful novel, we gain so much more insight into the film and our own versions of it. Another review for the movie or book claimed to "know all the answers," but I find that statement extremely arrogant and narrow-minded. Every person comes away from this story with their own unique view of it. We are simply not meant to "understand" this film, because Aronofsky knows that questions are sometimes more important than answers, and that the journey is so much more meaningful than the end.

    The Fountain graphic novel is about beauty, love and death. It has more questions than answers, and revels in the journeys of life. If you can accept that, if you can open your mind to this stunning work of art, you will start to see the world in an entirely different light.

    I promise.
