I... For Icarus (1979)

My rating: 6/10

Pretty good overall, though I question some of their choices - like putting a whole ass Milgram Experiment smack in the middle of the movie. Didn't seem particularly necessary, and did nothing for the pacing.

John Foxx - Plaza (Dramamine Remix)

The opening track of John Foxx' visionary, cinematic synth-wave album Metamatic (1981) is mixed with crunchy tech-house beats to dramatic and tense effect. Set to scenes from classic, French conspiracy thriller I As In Icarus (Henri Verneuil, 1979)

Yves Montand a toujours été un acteur engagé ! Engagé en particulier contre la tyrannie.

Ainsi dans "I, comme Icare" de Henri Verneuil. "I, comme Icare" est un film d'anticipation mélangeant l'enquête du Procureur Garrisson sur l'assassinat de JFK; et une étude scientifique " l'expérience de Millgram " etudiant la soumission des individus à l'autorité dans le cadre d'une fausse expérience mnémonique, véritable séance de torture.

Wonderful Mankind.

Don’t believe there is hope...there is strictly none. As you know, my web experience, in spite of the fact that I have always been trying to stay out of the water, has been, for now six years, fed with destruction, slanders and harassments. This web experience has built my real vision on “humans” more than anything else, especially because, as I wrote it several times, the web reveals people, allows them to be what they dream to be : horrors, because of the impunity factor, and the multiplicity of tortures’ possibilities. Some of you might remember that, last Autumn and once before, I wrote three times about the famous Milgram’s experience, its controversial yet excellent reproduction in a French broadcast about ten years ago : Le Jeu de la Mort, and its movie version in I Comme Icare of Costa-Gavras with Yves Montand, fantastic movie. I had in particular made developments on neuro-psychology. Marina Abramovic, already in 1 974 in Napoli, Italy, town known for its mafia (is it by “chance” that the results in a town known for its mafia have been so catastrophic ?), had created an experience, Rhythm Zero, whose results are dramatic and clearly show what many humans are : absolute pieces of shit. She allowed people for six hours to do “whatever they want” to the silent and motionless her with or without the tools that she had placed before her, separating them in two categories, the pleasure ones and the destruction ones. Some people could simply have killed her, JUST BECAUSE THEY COULD. One Dracula cut her throat slightly and drank her blood, some, OF COURSE, sexually assaulted her, some pointed a loaded gun to her head, some tied her to a table. Yet, a group of people fought against the people who attacked her. All this took place in a bourgeois context, in an art gallery. At the end of the experience, people just...ran...fucking...away, without speaking to Marina who could then however speak and move. Here is the original video (a selection of some moments) of the experience, with explanations of Marina many years after.

Here is a French article on the experience. Here is the English Wiki page on the experience. And once again, here is the extract of I Come Icare.

I guess that Marina was transformed for life by this shit...by the way the end of the short video shows her saying that she found a big portion of her hair which had become white during the experience which had just lasted six hours, and her age was really not one to have white hair.

Whump time!

So this is bad and short but um,,, whoops?

Delirious

—

It was almost the end of the mission. Peter had used his web fluid to patch a stab wound on his back from the very start of the fight, but he wasn’t sure how good of a job he’d done considering he kept leaving spatterings of blood everywhere.

No matter. In a couple minutes he could hitch a ride on the Quinjet and get his injury patched up properly.

Peter’s spidey sense went off before he heard Tony’s quick shout, “Kid! Incoming!”. He turned just in time to take the blunt of the hit head on and found himself cracking a brick wall a couple of disorienting seconds later. Peter gasped for air, all of it having left him in one big rush on impact.

He tried to push himself up from where he was collapsed against the wall, but as soon as he tipped his head forward, he felt a wave of nausea and weightlessness. When he felt for the back of his head, his hand came away sticky. Peter groaned and slumped back down, unable to control his movements past sporadic jerks of limbs and frankly pitiful attempts at getting to his feet.

Fine, Peter thought, huffing our a painful breath of air as his head felt lighter and lighter, doomed to die at the ripe old age of 16 it is. Before he managed to get up, Tony was there, faceplate retreated back into the armor.

“Woah woah woah, kid. Easy there. Just-“ Tony grunted at the effort of moving to assist Peter, the Iron Man suit dented around his midsection and obviously causing him considerable discomfort. “Cap, mind helping me out with the spider kid over here?” he asked into the comms.

Peter didn’t hear a response. His super hearing and vision were going in an out: one moment his senses were 11, the next 1. The most his brain was processing was Tony’s lined face, his own pain, and the odd proportions of the Iron Man suit. The latter was causing him considerable amusement.

“Mr. Stark.” he lazily giggled. That caught Tony’s attention immediately.

“Yeah kid?” His tried to bend down as far as he could to help Peter, his hands hovering over his head. The position only made Peter laugh harder.

“Mr. Stark,” his words were sluggish, “you have the body of a Disney Princess.” This time Peter’s laughter was muffled by painful cough. He grimaced for a moment before he remembered why he had been laughing and another fit of giggles overcame him.

“Mr. Stark you look-“ Peter was being lifted into the air, “like a, like a-“ his head lolled on a large chest, “a princess! like a real-“ he bared his teeth in a grin at where he thought Mr. Stark was, “real-life disney princess!” he was set down on something long and soft.

Peter gazed upwards at the man in question in amazement. Through his hazy vision, Mr. Stark looked like a blur of fire. “Mr. Stark-“ Peter started, words beginning to slur through his sleepy grin as a needle was slipped into the crook of his elbow, “you’re th’ sun an’ I’ Icar’s.”

Moments later, Peter fell into a blissful sleep, unaware of the concerned Avengers hovering around him.

one of the best parts of I.. Comme Icare was when they interrupt the movie to spend 20 minutes recreating the Milgram Experiment

Spreading my wings I soar Flying high in the sky There's no ground anymore There's no but, there's no why

Le vent sous mes ailes me porte toujours plus haut Libre dans les cieux je quitte la terre, ses soucis Aucune chance de finir comme Icare cramoisi Mes écailles sont à l'épreuve du feu le plus chaud
