René Laloux

biography: René Laloux was born in Paris in 1929 and went to art school to study painting. After some time working in advertising, he got a job in a psychiatric institution where he began experimenting in animation with the interns. It is at the psychiatric institution that he made 1960's Monkey's Teeth (Les Dents du Singe), in collaboration with Paul Grimault's studio, and using a script written by the Cour Cheverny's interns. Another important collaborator of his was Roland Topor with whom Laloux made Dead Time (Les Temps Morts, 1964), The Snails (Les Escargots, 1965) and his most famous work, the feature length Fantastic Planet (La Planète Sauvage, 1973). Laloux also worked with Jean Giraud (Mœbius) to create the lesser known film Les Maîtres du temps (Time Masters), released in 1982. Laloux's 1988 film, Gandahar, was released in the US as Light Years, and made in cooperation with the artist Caza. The US version was redubbed by Harvey Weinstein, from a screenplay adapted by Isaac Asimov. The US version was not as successful as the French version, grossing less than $400,000 on its release. Laloux died of a heart attack on March 14, 2004 in Angoulême, Charente, Poitou-Charentes, France.

biography:
C'est aux côtés de Roland Topor que René Laloux expérimente l'animation dans un court-métrage, en 1964, Les Temps morts. Dans cette oeuvre au ton très grave, évoquant la brutalité humaine et la guerre, on retrouve un texte de Jacques Sternberg dit par Roland Dubillard.  Un an plus tard, ils récidivent avec Les Escargots, en 1965, un court-métrage catastrophe assez jouissif qui leur permet de perfectionner la technique du papier découpé.

Dès 1966, ils s'attellent à l'adaptation du roman Oms en série de l'écrivain français Stefan Wul. Topor signera toute la direction artistique et les dessins de La Planète sauvage, animés par les studios d'animation Jiří Trnka de Krátký Film à Prague. Sorti en 1973, ce long-métrage d'animation reçoit le Prix spécial du jury au festival de Cannes.  Des années après sa sortie, La Planète sauvage est aujourd'hui reconnu comme un film majeur, sans lequel Miyazaki et consorts, ainsi que de nombreux dessinateurs, n'auraient peut-être jamais créés de la même manière.

En 1977, après avoir ouvert son studio d'animation à Angers, René Laloux entame un autre projet d'adaptation avec Philippe Caza, dessinateur au journal Métal hurlant, celle d'un roman de Jean-Pierre Andrevon, Les Hommes-machines contre Gandahar (1969). Il en résulte un court-métrage, Les Hommes-machines, sorte de pilote qui restera sans suite. Il s'entoure notamment, pour ces quelques minutes, du dessinateur Philippe Adamov (qui travailla notamment sur Ulysse 31) et Brian Eno, pour la musique. Excusez du peu...  Son film suivant, en 1982, Les Maîtres du Temps, signera sa collaboration avec Moebius, pour un nouveau long-métrage adapté d'un roman de Stefan Wul, L'Orphelin de Perdide. Jean Giraud, aka Moebius, signera aussi le scénario du film, aux côtés de Laloux et d'un certain Jean-Patrick Manchette, fameux auteur de romans policiers.  Laloux avait vu grand pour ce projet, qui devait ouvrir une série de plusieurs téléfilms réalisés avec différents dessinateurs du journal Métal hurlant, mais les difficultés financières et logistiques viendront à bout de sa volonté. Réalisé en Hongrie, Les Maîtres du Temps souffre ainsi du désengagement de la production du film malgré un projet solide.  Son travail inachevé avec Philippe Caza le pousse à s'investir dans un autre film avec lui, après un deuxième court-métrage ensemble pour la télévision, La Prisonnière, en 1985.  Ce grand projet commun, qui n'est autre que Gandahar, sortira finalement en salles en 1987 : il s'agit du dernier long-métrage de Laloux, qu'il signe donc avec Philippe Caza.

La même année, Laloux fait travailler son équipe sur l'adaptation de la nouvelle Comment Wang-Fô fut sauvé de Marguerite Yourcenar, son dernier film : il évoquera le projet d'adaptation d'un roman de Serge Brussolo avec le dessinateur Patrice Sanahujas, avorté suite au décès de ce dernier. Et il ne fera que participer à l'écriture du scénario de L'Oeil du loup, un court-métrage d'animation de Hoël Caouissin réalisé d'après le roman de Daniel Pennac paru en 1984.

Les dernières années de sa vie, Laloux les consacrera à la direction du laboratoire d'imagerie numérique du Centre National de la Bande Dessinée et de l'Image (CNBDI) d'Angoulême, preuve que son appétit pour l'animation et ses techniques restait intact malgré un parcours loin d'être tout tracé...

biography:
René Laloux war ein französischer Animator, Drehbuchautor und Filmregisseur.

Er wurde 1929 in Paris geboren und studierte Malerei an einer Kunsthochschule. Nach einiger Zeit in der Werbung arbeitete er in einer psychiatrischen Klinik, wo er gemeinsam mit den Praktikanten erste Animationsversuche unternahm. In dieser Klinik entstand 1960 der Film „Die Zähne des Affen“ (Les Dents du Singe) in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Studio von Paul Grimault und nach einem Drehbuch der Praktikanten des Cour Cheverny.

Ein weiterer wichtiger Mitarbeiter war Roland Topor, mit dem Laloux „Die tote Zeit“ (Les Temps Morts, 1964), „Die Schnecken“ (Les Escargots, 1965) und sein bekanntestes Werk, den abendfüllenden Spielfilm „Der wilde Planet“ (La Planète Sauvage, 1973), drehte.

Laloux arbeitete außerdem mit Jean Giraud („Möbius“) an dem weniger bekannten Film „Herrscher der Zeit“ (Les Maîtres du temps, 1982). Laloux’ Film „Gandahar“ aus dem Jahr 1987 erschien in den USA unter dem Titel „Light Years“ und entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Künstler Caza. Die US-Version wurde von Harvey Weinstein nach einem Drehbuch von Isaac Asimov neu synchronisiert. Sie war weniger erfolgreich als die französische Fassung.
