Title: Un film émouvant concernant la jeunesse et sa musique de 1961 = Music and Youth Culture of 1961 Evocatively Portrayed
Review: See the various reviews on Amazon’s U.S. WWW site for the details of plot and suchlike matters. Since nobody so far (as of early 2013) has reviewed this superb little film in French, here, at least, is an assessment of it in English!I like this film for a lot of personal reasons, among other ones, which is what I concentrate upon here. I was the age (maybe plus a year) of the Hungarian immigrant teen, Karchy, in the year of the film’s setting at the onset of the 1960s. I recall « Cleavageland » (affectionately erotic name for Cleveland, the supposedly unsexy city of northern Ohio!) admittedly from a bit later, when I did my graduate studies at the beginning of the following decade (1970s) in Ohio, in Kent, not far away from Cleveland (though closer to Akron) where campus life at Kent State University certainly included a lot more sex (and pop music) than in ever-so-swinging California and Massachusetts, where I had done my undergraduate studies! Ohioans, however incongruous it may seem to some, always have been hardy and randy folk, as well as practical and pious.I remember the music really, really well and even performed r&b and « soul » music in public (on double bass, sometimes on piano too) during the first half of the 1960s in a mixed black and white group, and sang and played in gospel music (in both black and white idioms). None of that amounted to much, but it did help to understand and to experience directly the power of that music. What is more to the point, and which does conjure up very effectively the heat that r&b/soul music of those years could generate, is the song that Karchie’s black friend, Amos (acted by Damen Fletcher), and his musicians perform a few times here and there in the film, and which they come to record thanks to Billy Magic’s intervention, as the motion picture tells its story. I remember, too, the « Payola » scandals that rocked (forgive the pun!) North American news-reporting during the 1950s and 1960s. I remember Church life, too, in those last years just prior to the Second Vatican Council. It’s all here in « Telling Lies in America », as I still recall vividly the « look » and « feel » of the time, the furniture, urban architecture and decoration, fads, male and female hair styles, clothing, etc. of 1950s and early 1960s working class America, to which this film is visually faithful to a remarkable extent. Also, of course, I remember the awkwardness of youth that Karchy (played by Brad Renfro) is living through in the film.This is a fine movie. Kevin Bacon is terrific as the sleazy disc-jockey « Billy Magic », who takes Karchy under his wing and makes him feel important as his assistant, introduces him to some gratifying as well as degrading things in life, only to betray his boyish trust. However, Billy does right by Karchy and by Amos, too, due to some angry (and potentially career-killing) pressure from the white kid to help his black friend, which impels Karchy to come through with the legal break (in his payola case testimony) that gets Billy Magic out of trouble, despite potential harm to Karchy himself in misrepresenting the facts. In the face of some worrisome pressure from the federal agents, intent on ruining Billy, which they exert upon Karchy and on his aging father, eventually both gain their U.S. citizenship, a kindly judge realising the human decency of the father and son, so the film ends upbeat. For music, drama, good acting, and more, this film is a winner!

Review: I saw this movie years ago. This is about a DJ (Kevin Bacon) that comes to Cleveland, Ohio in the early 1960’s. When he gets this job at the radio station, one of the things he ask for is for a young boy. He got told to go ahead. So he picks this one 17 year old teen that is very impressionable and doesn’t know anything about bribes. That is what he got hired for. This young teen goes to a Catholic private school for boys. He gets in trouble in school left and right. He even gets suspended from school. He didn’t know about these bribes until his friend told him. His friend has a band and they played for Kevin Bacon. After they played at this concert, his friend told him about the money. The young boy confronted Kevin Bacon only to fine the Cleveland Police talking to Kevin Bacon about these bribes. He denied and stated that they couldn’t do anything to the teen because he wasn’t an adult. Back then you had to be 21 to be classified as an adult. So Kevin Bacon told that this is how it is. He did end up tearing up the contact up and made up a new one for his friend. The young teen decides to not work for him and wants a job that is on the up and up. I loved this movie for one thing it took place in my home town Cleveland and its just good. I wasn’t bored with it at all.

Review: Two words: GREAT MOVIE! Both Kevin Bacon and Brad Renfro (who just became my new favorite actor, I think!) were excelent, and the story is wonderful. Nice to see Calista Flockheart looking relatively normal, and not rail-thin. I really liked the part Brad goes to Calista when his whole world seems to be crashing down around him. Also, when the one woman said that he was « gentle. » Very sweet moment. If you haven’t already, SEE THIS MOVIE! The only reason I saw it was because Jonathan Rhys Meyers was in it, but he kinda had a small part. I would have liked to see more of him, and I would have liked to see about what he talked about in confession (if you’ve seen it, you know what I mean). Anyhoo, great flick, and I highly recommend it!
