Adjustment Bureau

Avec Matt Damon.
Que je me suis regardée hier soir, dès 20 heures, en l'absence de mes mômes, o phénomène rare, en vacances ailleurs.
Ce qui m'a permis de voir le film en entier, ce qui ne m'arrive pas souvent.

The Adjustment Bureau (2011) Poster

Eh bien, très bien ce film.
Concept intéressant où la vie de chacun est planifiée par un mysterieux bureau des ajustements avec son "chairman", et ses "ajusteurs", qui s'assurent que le plan est respecté, quitte à provoquer des incidents qui changent le cours des choses à leur avantage.


"David Norris
What ever happened to Free Will?
Thompson: 
We actually tried Free Will before. After taking you from hunting and gathering to the height of the Roman Empire we stepped back to see how you'd do on your own. You gave us the Dark Ages for five centuries... until finally we decided we should come back in. The Chairman thought maybe we just needed to do a better job of teaching you how to ride a bike before taking the training wheels off again. So we gave you the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, the Scientific Revolution. For six hundred years we taught you to control your impulses with reason, then in 1910 we stepped back. Within fifty years, you'd brought us World War I, the Depression, Fascism, the Holocaust and capped it off by bringing the entire planet to the brink of destruction in the Cuban Missile Crisis. At that point a decision was taken to step back in again before you did something that even we couldn't fix. You don't have free will, David. You have the appearance of free will. 

David Norris: So you handle the important things? The last time I checked, the world is a pretty screwed-up place.
Thompson: It's still here. If we had left things in your hands, it wouldn't be."


Excellent.

Et faites gaffe aux types avec chapeaux..
