Première

Cette histoire de DJ qui fait danser les hipsters dans les soirées électro de Los Angeles avait pourtant deux atouts pour séduire les jeunes : Zac Efron, ex-teen star dont la carrière de comédien légitime vient peut-être déjà d'être tuée dans l'oeuf, et Emily Ratajkowski, la mannequin dont tous les hommes qui ont vu Gone Girl se souviennent.

L'histoire : Cole, un DJ de 23 ans vit dans le milieu de l’électro et des nuits californiennes. La journée, il traîne avec ses amis d’enfance. La nuit il mixe, dans l’espoir de composer le son qui fera danser le monde entier. Son rêve semble alors possible lorsqu’il fait la connaissance de James, un DJ expérimenté, qui décide de le prendre sous son aile…

Visiblement, les gamins qui regardaient High School Musical (la comédie musicale télé puis cinéma qui a lancé Zac Efron) écoutent aujourd'hui plus volontiers du gangsta rap (N.W.A. cartonne toujours) que de l'électro. Warner, le distributeur, aurait peut-être dû regarder les chiffres français d'Eden, le film de Mia Hansen-Love sur la musique électronique et la French Touch qui, malgré une belle exposition médiatique, n'avait attiré que 50 000 spectateurs dans les salles et figurait à ce titre dans le flop 20 de 2014.

Tout n'est pas perdu pour autant pour Zac Efron, qui devrait rempiler pour la suite de Nos Pires voisins et sera à l'affiche d'Alerte à Malibu le film, aux côtés de Dwayne Johnson. We Are Your Friends de Max Joseph est quand même visible dans les salles françaises.

est un film dramatique américain coécrit et réalisé par Max Joseph, sorti en 2015.

 

Résumé

Cole Carter, un DJ de 23 ans, vit dans le milieu de l'électro et des nuits californiennes. La journée, il traîne avec ses amis d'enfance.

Son rêve semble alors possible lorsqu'il fait la connaissance de James Reed, un DJ expérimenté, qui décide de le prendre sous son aile...

Fiche technique

Cast

Réception

Le film est un énorme échec au Box-Office. Sorti dans 2333 salles aux États-Unis, "We Are Your Friends" n'a rapporté que 1,8 million de dollars pour son premier week-end d'exploitation (soit 772 dollars par salle). Il s'agit d'un record, celui du plus gros bide de l'histoire pour un film de studio distribué dans plus de 2000 salles[2]. Toutefois, l'échec commercial est à relativiser compte tenu du budget relativement modeste du long métrage (6 millions de dollars).

Trivia

Showing all 19 items
Countess Anna is considered by historians to be cinema's first lesbian character.
*
Georg Wilhelm Pabst nearly signed Marlene Dietrich to star, although he greatly preferred Louise Brooks. According to Pabst, Dietrich was in his office waiting to sign the contract when a cable came from Paramount saying that Brooks was willing to play the role.
*
This marked the first of three films produced in Europe for Louise Brooks. Brooks remarked that she much preferred her European films because she felt they challenged her as an artist, but she also admitted that the European films proved more exhausting than those filmed in Hollywood.
*
Louise Brooks, who had faded into obscurity by the late 1930s, was delighted by her renewed popularity in the 1970s and 1980s, much of which was actually the result of intensive self-promotion by herself and her mentor, James Card, and even went so far as to attend re-releases of her films in crowded revival houses.
*
The character of Lulu, the free-spirited and sexually-promiscuous Berlin flapper, her iconic haircut, blatant sexuality, and manner of dress momentarily influenced the model of what became known as the "new modern woman" in Europe and the United States.
*
Despite being replaced by Louise Brooks at the last minute for the role of Lulu in Loulou (1929), Marlene Dietrich managed to snag another coveted role. Her removal from Pandora's Box freed her up to play one of her most iconic roles, Lola Lola in Josef von Sternberg's The Blue Angel (1930).
*
Film historians have credited the sudden presence of sound in moving pictures for the commercial struggles of this film.
*
After a warm critical reception immediately upon release, this film fell into relative obscurity until British film historian Kenneth Tynan's article, "The Girl in the Black Helmet," published by The New Yorker in 1971 reacquainted the film public with Loulou (1929) and its star Louise Brooks
*
In her biography, Louise Brooks says she was physically attracted to Gustav Diessl, who played Jack the Ripper, and that made it easy for her to play her scenes with him.
*
According to Louise Brooks' memoir, "Lulu in Hollywood", Alice Roberts was not aware her character was a lesbian until filming began, and she was initially opposed to playing the role as being attracted to Lulu. Georg Wilhelm Pabst, Brooks writes, convinced Roberts to pretend she was making her love gestures to Pabst, who was standing just off-camera.
*
Louise Brooks' highly influential "bob" hairdo is referred to as a Lulu to this day.
*
Director Georg Wilhelm Pabst approached Paramount about loaning Louise Brooks to star in this film. Paramount refused, and Pabst was forced to turn to Marlene Dietrich as his second choice. However, Brooks and the studio were in the midst of a heated dispute about her salary. With Paramount unwilling to pay Brooks more money, she walked out on her contract and immediately agreed to replace Dietrich on the film.
 
*
For the scene in which Lulu picks up and seduces Jack, Georg Wilhelm Pabst selected one of Louise Brooks's own suits - her favorite - for Lulu's costume and soiled, scuffed and rent it. Brooks claimed that, without spoken direction, Pabst thus established the desired effect of making her feel worn, cheap, and desperate, as the character of Lulu was intended to be portrayed.
*
Director Georg Wilhelm Pabstfelt that Louise Brooks was perfect for the part of Lulu after he saw her performance in Une fille dans chaque port (1928).
*
Georg Wilhelm Pabst initially incurred a lot of wrath when he cast American Louise Brooks in the role of Lulu, a part which was considered to be quintessentially German. Ultimately Brooks' performance silenced her critics.
*
Fritz Kortner reportedly did not like or respect Louise Brooks, who he didn't consider a trained actress.
*
Was chosen by Premiere magazine as one of the "100 Movies That Shook the World" in the October 1998 issue. The list ranked the "100 most daring movies ever made."
*
The film is included on Roger Ebert's "Great Movies" list.
*
Included among the "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die", edited by Steven Schneider.

Greatest Silent Film    
14 April 1999 | by Vlad B.  (United States) – (fin)


On the contrary, the people around her fall prey to their inhibitions, delusions and obsessions. Essentially, she is only an indirect cause of their demise and never fully responsible. Lulu's representation as a victim of nothing but her own zest for love and life in a stagnant, repressive society, is an example of humanist cinema at its finest.

Brooks' personal life was no less turbulent than her character's: after a potentially prosperous career and scores of lovers (from Chaplin to Pabst himself), she quit the business, refusing to cooperate with its humiliating limitations and rigid standards. Fortunately for us, her name has been immortalized in an impeccable movie.
