The Dreamers is a 2003 English/French drama film directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. The film is based on Gilbert Adair's novel The Holy Innocents. Adair also wrote the screenplay for the film.
Plot
A young American exchange student, Matthew, (Michael Pitt) has come to Paris in order to study French. Through his love of cinema, he comes into a rapid friendship with a Frenchwoman, Isabelle, (Eva Green) and her fraternal twin brother, Théo (Louis Garrel). All three have an avid love for movies, especially "the classics." As their friendship grows, Matthew learns of the extreme intimacy shared by the siblings and gets pulled into their world. Over time he falls in love with them, and the three seclude themselves from the world, falling further and further from the reality of the 1968 student riots. An abrupt ending to this relationship comes when that world is shattered and they are compelled to face the reality of 1968 France.
Trivia
- Jake Gyllenhaal and Leonardo DiCaprio were both offered the role of Matthew, the male lead. Gyllenhaal turned it down because of the explicit nature of the nude scenes (several shots involve "close-ups" of the male lead's penis). DiCaprio passed on the role because he was in pre-production with The Aviator.
- There were to have been sections depicting much more explicit sexual relations between the characters of Matthew and Theo, but they were eventually cut, thinking that it might have been "too much".
- First film since Bent (1997) that was released theatrically in the US with a NC-17 rating.
