“Ababouiné — the original music of the film”, François Pinet-Forcier and Jo Millette

On 33 rpm, it would have been as wonderful as André Forcier’s film. On digital platforms since August 26, at least it exists. Separately. Basic quality of a good soundtrack: to have been intrinsically linked to the work, and then to live its own life. To the point of accompanying the imagination. This is the case here, let’s applaud the composer-arrangers François Pinet-Forcier and Jo Millette. The whistling, the violin that turns country give the piece Swing storm an excess of emotions that can travel with the listener, and not just allow the viewer to prolong scenes. Same thing with Crooked teeth : it’s beautiful in itself, this harmonica on a piano background, it grabs the heart. The choir, in canon with the orchestra in Children’s bikeshas Morricone in his soul, and it’s understandable. The final piece, a sort of scout song freed from religiosity, is a joy that doesn’t want to end at the same time as the film. It’s not too late to burn a long gameaccompanied by a fold-out poster, we say to ourselves: come on, let’s demand the impossible.
