The cinematic heartbeat of Xavier Dolan

French canadian director Xavier Dolan has done quite a few great films in the last couple of years, he has become a regular guest on well-known festivals in Cannes and Toronto and even won one or another fancy award. Therefore my favorite Dolan movie Les amours imaginaires (Heartbeats, 2010) was already banned to the “Earlier Films” section in his wikipedia bio. But what a film! This very specific and almost poetic film language, the dramaturgy of colors and the extraordinary blend of the soundtrack. Heartbreaking cinematographic art!
