| Plot: | It's a story of two love affairs. A father's love for his five sons. And one son's love for his father, a love so strong it compels him to live a lie. That son is Zac Beaulieu, born on the 25th of December 1960, different from all his brothers, but desperate to fit in. During the next 20 years, life takes Zac on a surprising and unexpected journey that ultimately leads him to accept his true nature and, even more importantly, leads his father to love him for who he really is. A mystical fable about a modern-day Christ-like figure, "C.R.A.Z.Y" exudes the beauty, the poetry and the madness of the human spirit in all its contradictions. |

Goofs
|
DATE: In a scene set in the late 1970s, a VIA Rail Canada train with "Renaissance" cars is visible in the background. These cars were first put into service by VIA Rail more than 20 years later. DATE: Just after hearing Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part One)" and the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil", we see several music albums, and among them is Pink Floyd's "Animals". The scene is supposed to be occurring in 1975, and "Animals" was released in 1977. DATE: When Raymond drops off Zac in his car (when he asks for a loan), you can see a modern blue car pass on the street behind them. DATE: The bus station has the post-2000 logo of the Egged bus company. DATE: At the beginning of the movie, and also during a flashback after his motorcycle accident, Zach as a baby is shown being resuscitated using a clear plastic face mask and bag. Those were not available in 1960. Face masks at that time were made out of black rubber. DATE: For Christmas 1967, and also at a later Christmas party, the father sings to a Charles Aznavour record. The Barclay label on the record in the film was not used until sometime during the '70s or '80s. DATE: It's 1975 and Zach's cousin is sporting the popular Farrah Fawcett hairdo that EVERYONE tried to wear back then. Problem is, Charlie's Angels hadn't yet debuted until a year later. Same thing with the Saturday Night Fever-influenced disco three-piece suit. That was made famous everywhere by the film, but in this film the influence is seen before the movie even came out. |
Quotes
|
Raymond Beaulieu: [to Laurianne] I missed... your delicious ironed toast. Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: Do I look like a fag? Do I talk with a lisp? Strut like a peacock? Psychothérapeute: Nice idea of homosexuals you've got there. They're not all like that. Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: They all become that way. Sooner of later. [lighting a cigarette] This is a waste of time. I'm not a fag. I'd rather die. [looking at the shrink, uncomfortable] It's just a fugure of speech. Isn't it obvious? Being happy and healthy, or miserable and fucked-up. It's a no-brainer. Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: I want to be like everyone else. Madame Chose: Thank God, you never will. Raymond Beaulieu: [to Zac, in the car] I don't smoke or drink or swear anymore. Fuck! I left my bag of weed at the pub. Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: You seem to be sniffing a lot for someone in detox. Raymond Beaulieu: Socking cock's made you a prick. Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: [reminding Raymond his journey in jail] Your ass must've been raw after prison. Raymond Beaulieu: You would have enjoyed that, huh? Gervais Beaulieu: Be a man for once in your life and tell the truth! Zachary Beaulieu 15 à 21 ans: What do you want to hear? That I'm gay? A fag? That I suck cock? Yes something happened but not with him. You know with who. Nothing happened earlier. But I would've fucking loved it if something had! Fucking right! Zachary Beaulieu 6 à 8 ans: What's a fairy? Laurianne Beaulieu: [surprised] Nothing. Hogwash. Christian Beaulieu 24 à 30 ans: [laughing at Antoine's hockey fight] You got beaten up by Tremblay's little fag. Antoine Beaulieu 21 à 27 ans: What, you four-eye fag? Antoine Beaulieu 21 à 27 ans: [after he surprised Zac imitating Bowie] You done imitating that fucking fag? Huh? You're making us look like a bunch of idiots. [shows Zac people down the street watching him] Paul: [after Brigitte learned him that Zac was gifted] You can stop your girlfriend's monthly bleeding, too? Laurianne Beaulieu: [to Zac, after his accident] Thank God you were dedicated to Virgin Mary. Laurianne Beaulieu: [in the parking lot] It's what he wanted. Gervais Beaulieu: So? It's not up to him. You want to turn him into a fairy? [looking at Zac's toy] Laurianne Beaulieu: Stop it, he's only five! Gervais Beaulieu: He's almost six and looks seven. Laurianne Beaulieu: Oh, come on! Gervais Beaulieu: Never mind 'come on'. Now return it. Go on. Gervais Beaulieu: [about gay people] You've got to be sick to keep your penis in someone else's ass! Laurianne Beaulieu: [pause] Hmm... You have bad memory. Gervais Beaulieu: [pause] Well... that was different... Prêtre: Stop the singing! Ok, the midnight mass is too long, lets finish it now. Everybody go home and unwrap your presents. [Everybody cheers] |
