Synopsis
This free-form film is a self-portrait, which revisits more than 40 years of the author’s filmography and questions the major stations of his life, while capturing the political tremors of the time.

Baby Annette showed up at Cannes to the tune of David Bowie’s “Modern Love” and the audience WENT NUTS!!!!!!!!!! Then Leos Carax proceeded to light a cigarette during his standing ovation for IT’S NOT ME, a 40-minute erratic unspooling of one of the most creative and thought-provoking minds in cinema today. I could’ve watched it for another 40.

I have a bias against video-essay-like free format films, and even though I love all of Carax films, I wasn't curious about such a personal project. But I realized how much Carax thinks outside the box, not only in his films but also in his personal life. At a time when I feel like we are really at the end of the world and everyone is going crazy, he channels cinema into the current world, essence of politics, and images of human beings from the films and history.
When Carax realizes that the audience has already stopped caring, the film said “after the credits, Baby Annette will show up”. Then Baby Annette is dancing to Bowie's Modern Love and Carax…

I spent an hour with Leos Carax discussing this film, his 40-year career, ambitions to become "a dictator of images," and never trying white wine. It was a strange and wonderful experience that I hope the ensuing interview lives up to even a bit.
There’s a real ecological problem with images. So that concerns me. We’ve all seen, you walk in the streets and you see kids with their… how do you say it? [Makes pushing motion]
Stroller.
Yeah, with their iPads or the parents’ iPhone. So, of course, if you’re bombarded by these images on the streets… I walked through Times Square the other day and I thought, “I don’t think I’d ever seen so much light in my…

The filmmaker personal box of images. Does any of it actually matter in face of the world? Struggles some to articulate itself, the Godardian pastiche can be awkward, but Carax trembling is deeply felt. Ends with a Baby Annette cameo that is at the same time self-defeating, nothing left to the late auteur than embracing the brand, and packed with real pleasure, which is sort of this movie’s contradictions in one scene.

Les larmes de joie devant la scène post-générique.
On sera 8 à le penser mais quel grand moment de cinéma pour 2024.

I just decided to check this out during a Criterion livestream last night going in completely blind. The last stream of theirs I caught was The Beast which is one of my favorite's from this year.
I knew nothing about Leos Carax. I've never seen a single one of his films and had never heard of his name. With It's Not Me I expected a narrative film and instead got a self-reflective autobiographical film featuring shots from Carax's filmography and stills from his life.
Since I had zero knowledge on who he was, this was like a fever dream to me. I didn't enjoy it very much at all, but the structure of the film and the way Carax recounts moments of his life is pretty intriguiging.
I'd like to check this film out again after watching some of his other projects to give it another chance.

Last Review: Heretic

Clarified how strange it is that there's somebody out in the world whose father is Leos Carax.
I don't know what it means for something to be a perfect movie, or if that's even possible, but this is some of the closest any film's brought me to a vision of such.
Carax talking to us, talking to himself, talking about himself, talking to and about the “Leos Carax” character he’s played for 40 years. Ideas made so fluently and precisely it’s almost not worth thinking about them further, like just another second deflates the pleasure of making these connections in the first place, even as certain knowledge of Carax’s life — the subject of his only POV shot, for one thing — emboldens it all.
"Modern Love" will always be his.

puede que Carax sintiese tanto odio por Godard que, resentido porque el franco-suizo se adelantase a todos quitándose la vida, hiciese esta película, monstruosidad, cosa, diarrea total, como venganza, como asesinato en diferido del director más grande de la historia.
De eso se trata esta porquería. De una especie de regurgitación ridícula del estilo del Godard post-Histoire(s) du cinéma con Carax incluso copiando, emulando, la voz se Godard; recurriendo al uso de los intertítulos y a ciertos trucos de montaje. Pero el resultado es atroz. La reflexión histórico-política apenas alcanza, agonizante, lo que podría decir un Bernard Henri-Levy o un Arturo Pérez Reverte. La utilización de la primera persona, la recurrencia a su propia obra y las bochornosas citas a…

The impossibility of being a father in a world of fascist tyranny. Our images no longer feel divine because there are simply too many of them. We need to learn to breathe again, to find a way to wash our eyes every once in a while.
Seen at the Walter Reade Theater at Film at Lincoln Center in New York City with a Q&A with Leos Carax

J'ai détesté, profondément détesté. Je déteste quand Carax rêve d'être Godard, sa fascination ridicule pour sa figure de rebelle. Je déteste comment il reprend Dans le noir du temps pour en faire son autoportrait à lui de manière si superficielle. Je déteste son humour, son amour de lui-même, sa posture renfermé, quasiment misanthrope et je ne comprend pas comment cet humain peut cacher autant de passion, de manière si transcendante. J'ai longtemps pensé que c'était un des pires films que j'ai vu de Cannes, je n'arrive pas à aimer un film dont je sens que l'humain derrière m'insupporte mais pourtant Carax est un génie. Je peux renier qu'au milieu de ce bouillon insupportable se cache des idées à la hauteur…
