00:00In 2016, Shyamalan made his big comeback with the excellent Split.
00:04A film about the misfortunes of a man suffering from dissociative identity disorder,
00:08in which we distinguish 23 personalities plus a 24th endowed with extraordinary strength.
00:14During a post-credits scene, the soundtrack of the film Unbreakable can be heard.
00:17and see the character of David Dunn played by Bruce Willis.
00:22Shyamalan later confirmed that the universes of Unbreakable and Split are linked.
00:25and he immediately announced a third opus which will also mark the return of Samuel L. Jackson
00:30and which will be called Glass.
00:32The director tells his story through this film, takes a step back from his own cinema and its influence on Hollywood.
00:38But too busy making us understand his meta message, he forgets the essential,
00:42develop a coherent and interesting story.
00:44The film doesn't have much to tell, it's a bit stuck in a rut, and the action itself is rather muddled.
00:49with subjective view sequences for example which are rather in bad taste.
00:53It's a shame because the beginning is promising, some scenes are really gripping.
00:57The encounter between David and the beast is so cool.
00:59But rather than focusing on such moments, Shyamalan prefers to make endless and pointless cameos.
01:04Emotion is sidelined, the dialogue rings hollow.
01:07At no point does the film delve into the characters' intimacy.
01:10They only serve to advance like pawns in a well-oiled chess game.
01:14which unsubtly heads towards a Deus Ex Machina straight out of hell.
01:18As if Shyamalan, like a bad magician, had neglected his entire trick.
01:22thinking that the viewer would be satisfied with the prestige and a far-fetched final twist.
01:27Surprising coming from a specialist in the genre.
01:29So yeah disappointed, the movie isn't bad per se.
01:31I had a good feeling about where he was going with this and it's pretty clever on paper.
01:34But it's very bad to tell.
01:36Now the reality is pretty decent, the atmosphere is interesting.
01:39But this film is clearly not worth its predecessors.
01:42The casting is doing pretty well.
01:43Samuel L. Jackson does the job and nothing more.
01:45James McAvoy is the only one who stands out, but he doesn't bring anything more to the table than what we already saw in Split.
01:50And Bruce Willis, for his part, is nowhere to be seen.
01:53There's nothing in his game.
01:54In 2019, we were all trying to figure out why.
01:57We were trying to understand this lack of investment in a role he knows and for a reality to which he owes a lot.
02:02What we also don't understand is the twenty DTVs in just two years.
02:06where each time we will only see him for a few minutes on the screen, more and more tired, less and less expressive,
02:12no longer making any effort in his career choices and in his involvement through his filmography.
02:16A free fall that could not be explained.
02:18Even the appeal of money could no longer be an excuse.
02:20But on March 30, 2022, through a press release, everything will make sense.
02:24His family announced that day that Bruce had a disease affecting his nervous system called aphasia.
02:30and which affects his cognitive abilities, that is to say his language, his memory and his emotions at times.
02:36That's a tough question, that's the right idea.
02:44Indeed, I think that there was a good idea, and if you wouldn't have, is that it?
02:53That's what. That's a one-time question.
02:56From a neighborhood, and we're going to buy.
03:00It's the same thing.
03:01That would be your thing then.
03:03This explains his performance in Ice, his very short-lived role in Brooklyn Business,
03:18but also all his small roles without much interest in numerous B series.
03:21Willis simply couldn't do better,
03:23content to sign 2-4 day contracts in studios in Los Angeles to be close to home,
03:28seeing his text being diminished more and more because he simply could not remember it any longer.
03:32So much so that he will play with an earbud most of the time.
03:35Roles of a few minutes or for cutaways, reverse shots and wide shots,
03:40It is his stunt double that we see on screen.
03:41I've met a lot of people who worked with him recently and none of them found it pleasant.
03:46He doesn't want to be there.
03:51He only comes to film the close-ups and his stunt double takes care of everything else.
03:56Jesse V. Johnson, the director of White Elephant, one of the last films directed by Bruce Willis,
04:04will testify that the actor was clearly not the same person he remembered from when they worked together on Code Mercury.
04:10He reports that he looked totally lost on set,
04:13that he was given a text to recite that he did not understand,
04:16being thereby, and I quote, manipulated like a puppet.
04:19And this is where I come to wonder if this manipulation does not extend to his professional entourage.
04:24It has recently become known that its image in cinema could persist thanks to artificial intelligence.
04:28But above all, he shot 23 films in 2 years, at the time when his illness began to become serious.
04:34And when we know that according to the various testimonies on the sets,
04:37Bruce didn't always know why he was there,
04:39one is entitled to wonder if appearing in all his mediocre productions was really his fault,
04:43or if money-hungry raptors had no qualms about manipulating a sick man.
04:47The question remains and will probably remain unanswered.
