An Advent Story: Christmas Factual Information

By Gregory Stockslager

Catherine Deneuve brings her famed composure to the character of Junon, matriarch of the difficult Vuillard family, who gather together at Christmas after she discovers she requires a bone marrow donation from a blood relative, in Arnaud Desplechin's captivating A Christmas Tale (Un conte de Nol). The unpredictable, emotionally volatile experience of this film, an innovative, fascinating drama that is equal parts hilarity and melancholy, cannot be adequately captured by that straightforward family reunion premise. A Christmas Tale weaves together music, movies, poetry, unfulfilled childhood loves, burning grudges, harsh outbursts, and startling slapstick in a beautifully chaotic package.
