\u00a0Irlande, 1952 : Philomena Lee, encore adolescente, tombe enceinte. Consid\u00e9r\u00e9e comme une \u00abfemme d\u00e9chue\u00bb, elle est envoy\u00e9e au couvent de Roscrea. Bient\u00f4t, l\u2019enfant est arrach\u00e9 aux mains de sa m\u00e8re pour \u00eatre adopt\u00e9 par des am\u00e9ricains\u2026<\/p>\n
De 1922 \u00e0 1996, des milliers de jeunes femmes irlandaises, consid\u00e9r\u00e9es comme \u00abperdues\u00bb par leurs familles, furent plac\u00e9es dans des \u00e9tablissements dirig\u00e9s par des nonnes pour soi-disant expier leurs p\u00e9ch\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
Parmi elles, des femmes viol\u00e9es, de jeunes m\u00e8res, des orphelines, des prostitu\u00e9es ou encore de jolies filles a la sexualit\u00e9 jug\u00e9e trop pr\u00e9coce. Dans un pays catholique tr\u00e8s conservateur, ces foyers aux allures carc\u00e9rales contraignaient ces femmes \u00e0 un dur labeur et vendaient leur prog\u00e9niture aux plus offrants.<\/p>\n
Il aura fallu attendre 2013 et surtout la publication des conclusions d\u2019une commission d\u2019enqu\u00eate pour que l\u2019\u00c9tat Irlandais reconnaisse enfin sa responsabilit\u00e9 dans cette affaire r\u00e9voltante. D\u00e8s lors, il s\u2019av\u00e8re tr\u00e8s difficile pour un r\u00e9alisateur d\u2019\u00e9voquer ce pan de l\u2019histoire irlandaise \u00e0 travers la qu\u00eate bouleversante d\u2019une m\u00e8re pour retrouver son enfant, cinquante ans apr\u00e8s qu\u2019il lui ait \u00e9t\u00e9 arrach\u00e9, sans \u00eatre imm\u00e9diatement accus\u00e9 de vouloir faire pleurer dans les chaumi\u00e8res.<\/p>\n
Pourtant, s\u2019il est vrai qu\u2019en sortant du cin\u00e9ma vous n\u2019afficherez clairement pas une m\u00e9ga banane, \u00abPhilomena\u00bb nous dispense judicieusement du pathos ou du mis\u00e9rabilisme inh\u00e9rents \u00e0 un tel sujet.<\/p>\n
S\u2019inspirant du livre-enqu\u00eate de Martin Sixsmith<\/b>, \u00abThe Lost Child of Philomena Lee\u00bb, Stephen Frears<\/b> (\u00abHigh Fidelity\u00bb, \u00abTamara Drewe\u00bb) transcende le simple fait divers pour en faire un drame aussi saisissant que dr\u00f4le.<\/p>\n
Une superbe le\u00e7on de vie sur la foi, la justice et le pardon qui d\u00e9joue astucieusement les pi\u00e8ges du manich\u00e9isme gr\u00e2ce aux talents ind\u00e9niables de ses interpr\u00e8tes.<\/p>\n
Ainsi, Judi Dench<\/b>, connue pour son r\u00f4le de M dans \u00abJames Bond\u00bb, nous offre avec beaucoup de subtilit\u00e9 le portrait touchant d\u2019une vieille dame cr\u00e9dule, sacrifi\u00e9e pour la gloire de Dieu et de son \u00e9glise. Tandis que Steve Coogan<\/b>, instigateur du projet et co-sc\u00e9nariste du film, lui oppose une composition tout aussi forte o\u00f9 se m\u00eale cynisme et sarcasmes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
