La Ligne Brisée
On Tuesday, March 11, 2008, I went to see the film La Ligne Brisée. This is a Quebecois film, featuring Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge, and David Boutin.
The story is about two best friends, who are boxers. One is Sebastien, played by David Boutin, and the other one Danny, played by Lemay-Thivierge. The story starts off with these two joy riding along a country road. They pay too much attention to joy riding, they didn't see a cyclist, and end up hitting her. (We find out later on in the movie that the victim was a woman).
Sebastien was on his way to being a star boxer, who had a chance at world champion. However, after this hit and run, he knew that he wouldn't have a chance, so he had to keep it quiet... And his friend Danny actually steps up and takes the blame for him, so that he can concentrate on winning the title. However, due to a guilty conscience, or him thinking about the situation, he couldn't concentrate and actually loses the match, a KO. But because he was hit so hard, he actually suffers muscle injuries.
And this was the beginning of the rupture of a friendship. Due to a bunch of misunderstandings and men acting stupid. And they challenging each other to get into the ring and box each other, so they can settle a score... Does this happen? What else happens in the movie? Well, you'll have to watch it to find out.
