摘要：The films of Agnès Jaoui, a French filmmaker and actress, take an ironic and incisive view of the contemporary French bourgeoisie. Under the guise of dramatic comedies, her films offer polyphonic narratives underlining the difficulties of human relationships, the hypocrisies and the paradoxes of Western societies, as well as constituting a reflection upon identity discourses in present-day France. Jaoui’s biography is also closely linked to music, which comes accross in her films; and music becomes a fundamental element in the plot and a crucial means of expression. This paper analyses all these building blocks and their relation to the reality of France in the following films: Le goût des autres (2000), Comme une image (2004), and Parlez-moi de la pluie (2008).
