Le Temps retrouvé est un film franco-italo-portugais réalisé par Raoul Ruiz d'après le roman homonyme de Marcel Proust et sorti en 1999.
English Summary:
Time Regained (French: Le Temps retrouvé) is a 1999 French drama film directed by the Chilean filmmaker Raúl Ruiz. It is an adaptation of the 1927 final volume of the seven-volume series In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust. The plot is about the anonymous narrator of In Search of Lost Time who reflects on his past experiences while lying on his deathbed.
The choice to develop the last volume of In Search of Lost Time allows the film to refer to the entire series of books. For example, the film shows an episode of the first novel, Swann's Way (1913), usually referred to as "the lady in pink," as a flashback of Time Regained.
Much of the film is composed of flashbacks of Marcel's memories of the past. One leads to another in what Proust called involuntary memory triggered by sights, sounds, and smells from the present.
The movie starts off with Marcel Proust on his death bed. He is dictating something for his caretaker Céleste to write out for him. He dismisses her and flips through some pictures naming each person in the photos. This reminds him of his childhood. We then cut to Charlie Morel playing the piano at a party. Odette de Crécy directs the guests in the room to observe Marcel who is about ten years old. Marcel tips his hat to Odette's daughter Gilberte and both are called to take a picture. We return to adult Marcel asking Celeste about the smell of roses in the room. This reminds him of a lunch he once had with Gilberte.
Hungarian Summary:
1922. A halálos ágyán fekvő Marcel Proust, fényképeit nézegetve, az életén mereng. A valós személyeket képzeletének szülötteivel elegyíti. Fokozatosan azonban a képzelet győz a valóság fölött. Életének legfőbb értelmét munkáinak valósága jelenti, amely most a szeme előtt elevenedik meg. Könyveinek szereplői - emlékeinek megtestesítői - úgy kelnek életre a világtól elzárt, Hamelin utcai bérház kicsi szobájának falán, mintha egy térhatású vetítésen lennénk. Gyerekkorának elveszett paradicsoma és életének boldog napjai váltakoznak a társasági és irodalmi élethez fűződő újabb emlékekkel. A háború drámája - a párizsi társadalmi élet egy szűk csoportjának szemszögéből elemezve - hatalmas és végtelen társadalmi komédiává alakul. A szétterülő alkonyatban egy háború utáni társadalom körvonalai sejlenek fel a horizonton...
