All the ways you described her are all the reasons why I find her so endearing.

All of the extra scenes that I've seen that did not make it into the movie, although all were interesting, I believe they were best left out. For example by the end of the movie Adele became almost mythical or with a grand kind of aura and I think that's in part why the film is so popular. This scene for example would have made her feelings too schoolgirl-ish more suited for a television show, instead, the director left it to our senses. The only redeeming reason to add a scene like this one to the film would be just to showcase Adele's amazing talent for emotional range. Imagine this scene juxtaposed to the cafe' scene, complete polar opposites.

It's a wonderful scene, one of the best in the film, up there with the final cafe scene, only at the opposite end of the emotional range. I believe Kechiche cut it because it declares too emphatically that she's gay and he wanted to leave that more ambiguous. Remember the earlier scene in which she tells Valentin about her dismaying experience with Thomas. Note that both scenes take place in the same cafe, only in the previous scene she is screen-right and Valentin is screen-left. Here the reverse is true, the kind of subtle but meaningful little touch a creative artist throws in. In the previous scene, Adele is very, very depressed. "There's something wrong with me," she says, a classic line (at least in the past) from young people not attracted to the opposite gender and sensing they're different from everyone else. But here, after tying up with Emma, she is happy, very excited, even joyous. As I've said, I believe Kechiche realized in the editing that as a result we would see her as without a doubt a lesbian, all ambiguity gone. I do believe, though, that the film indicates she is gay. Kechiche just does so in a subtler way. Note, for instance, that when Emma asks if she has a girlfriend, her response is a kind of "not-on-your-life" ironic wince, which I see as evidence that she finds the very idea of opening herself up again so painful she can't even go there; instead, she talks about having a lot of crazy flings, obviously with males, but in three years nothing that has made her want to go further. That says to me, if I keep this scene in mind, that she is still trying to prove to herself that she is straight.

I think because it really veered away from Adele's character in the movie. Her character was never this comfortable at any other point in the film. Her inner battle with her sexuality was too prevalent and this scene probably would have stuck out like a sore thumb OR writer would have to rewrite the scenes that followed and described/revealed Adele's apprehensions with living outward and confidently with all the people in her life outside Emma and Emma's lesbian-friendly cocoon of friends and family. Never did she reveal her life and love with Emma to any of friends, family or coworkers, etc.

David Williams Both are bisexuals, Adèle prefers men and Emma prefers women. Also Emma and Adèle relationship lacked depth, it looks like they were only together for the sex.

It was only 2 minutes, too!

You can have friends and still feel alone so I guess that's the point

@@Bianca-ww4ze thats not what the person was saying at all..

Agreed!

I've never met a teenager who ate sloppy like that

@@beebright76 in public

There are scenes in the movie where she eats like a pig as well, I love the realism in this movie ❤️

@@Belacroix5 im a teen. I dont know or see anyone eat like this cept for sloppy old people

Same here😍 and her smiles too

hahah me too!! 😂😂

Kechiche felt the same way watching her eat that lemon tart right before giving her the part.

I've had an uncontrollable urge to cut her mouth out with a dull knife throughout this entire video.

and her dance :)

-colette more like disgusting you could see mashed food into her mouth while she was idiotically smiling

ibrahim B Agree

ibrahim B same, I cringed everytime she was eating.

@@ibrahimabarry4937 That's called realism and not a bullshit Hollywood cover up.

-colette thats why shes shown eating food drinking often in the movie and smoking..her mouth her face..its very animated and emotional

lol

Mariana Carvalho That is the thing that I love about Adèle.

***** I'm sure THAT'S why you watched it quite a few times.

Fatboy Sliim I meannnnn...

There was a lot missing from her friends and timeline was different than American movies. It was hard to follow at first. I just accepted what happened lol.

chbjdbccs Teaching? More 10 minutes about sex that made the relationship quite shallow.

@@antigonarosaura7845 yeah I hate those scenes sm. even more after I knew what happened to the actresses while playing it. I skipped them all when I watched the movie

:))))))

It reminded me of Ron when he was poisoned (love potion) in HP6😂

:D Jack Nicholson's Joker.

I can't wait to experience that with someone 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

: D

monica purple My feeling is that Kechiche didn't want to emphasize too much the friendship between Adele and Valentin (after all in the book, Valentin is the one who intermediates the last meeting between Adele and Lea in the café, and it's purposely completely swept from the film) in order to focus on Adele's life with Emma.Nevertheless this could be a legitimate question to ask to Kechiche. Talking about this bonus scene, he told that Adèle was extraordinary/exceptionnal in it. Coming from such a demanding director, you can be sure to view, not only a funny scene but also acting in the highest level.

+monica purple Ramakrishna said that given the choice between going to heaven and hearing a lecture about it, people would chose the lecture. Having filmed both, heaven must have sufficed, so the lecture was metaphorically left on the cutting room floor. I find this scene at least as useful as the first sex scene. Also demonstrates one of Adele's talents that helped her get the job. If you don't know the story about the lemon tart, google it.

+Bulgroz Where can you get the book? Is it in pdf online? I only saw a graphic novel of some pages. (like a comic) is it a novel?

thought in the book valentin arranged a meeting for lea and clementine a.k.a. adele to re-unite on the beach before adeles character dies from prescription pill abuse

really?

Guilty😂

Guilty af

I eat like that when I'm in public ;-;

Not me 😂 i hate the chewing sound😂

I eat like that both in and out of public lol. When you're hungry, you gotta eat you know.

+Aran Knowles I agree.

The director prefers to include porn scenes than these ones... it's a pity.

Well, they filmed around 800 hours of material. It would be difficult to include every scene they got.

FUNDOR SANTEK LMAO. YES HES DADDY AF

Yes! But to be fair I like that they left it up for interpretation. I don't think Emma ever truly stops loving Adele, I just think she was far too hurt to be with her again. She says she will always feel tenderness for her in the cafe, when Adele tries to use sex to kind of reel Emma back in. But she says she is no longer in love with her. I think Emma found the structure and commitment in Lise (child and all) that she couldn't find in Adele, because Adele was naive, and really still unsure about her life. But in the final scenes, at Emma's art show, one of the patrons she's talking to is talking about how he sees this transition from blue to red in her paintings, but that there's a struggle and the eyes show so much pain and longing still, even in this new "red" life. In a sense i'm glad it didn't have a happy ending, because there was no ending yet. Their lives aren't over, and maybe one day Emma could forgive, and work through it with Adele, when they are older and wiser. Adele shows she isn't the same person she was before, when she acts aloof to every advance thrown at her by others. She cannot think of anything but Emma, and the longing she feels for her. But she leaves, because she realized there's too much pain at this time, even after all those years.

Yeah, in interviews Lea is very ladylike and poised and feminine. And Adele is kinda goofy and funny.

They're actresses. How can you infer any real life personality from a freaking movie scene lmfao.

If you want to see a movie that seems to be a documentary, Criterion has just released a newly "remastered" DVD of Ermanno Olmi's The Tree of Wooden Clogs, an Italian film which in 1979 won the Palme d'Or of the Cannes Film Festival, the same prize this film won in 2013. In The Tree of Wooden Clogs you seem to be watching real life in every single minute of its three hours. The realism of it is amazing, especially since every single one of the approximately two dozen characters (children, elderly, newlyweds,middle-aged) is played by an actual peasant who has never acted at all before and who grew up on the same land where the film is set. And, believe it or not (I found it difficult to believe before I learned it was true) the director is a very independent man who wrote, directed, worked the camera, and edited the entire film. And, yes, he used only one camera. (Don't ask me how he did it.) He is so independent that, because the "actors" and the characters they play are all from the Italian province of Bergamo, he refused to dub it in Italian, he had them all speak their native dialect, so that even in Italy there had to be subtitles. (There's an interesting interview with the director, too.)

When joint hits you hard

spaceship intruder no I want to watch it too! Just out of curiosity and admiration for their acting 😍 the movie was still perfect in the final cut tho

I certainly would jump at the chance.

Not at all! The movie is like that

Bonjour, je suis en train de faire le sous titre chinois de cette vidéo, est ce-que vous pourriez me dire ce qu'elle dit à 2:03, j'arrive vraiment pas à comprendre ce qu'elle dit, merci beaucoup d'avance

et aussi, la phrase 1: 22, ''ça pouvait être_________ que ça pouvait être doux'', merci beaucoup

"ça pouvait être brute autant que ça pouvait être doux"

"on s'est pécho", j'aurais préféré avoir mis " we hooked up" mais j'ai pas osé me lancer dans un update, mais c'est vrai hung out est un peu faible.

En 2:03: C'est fou j'ai jamais ressenti ça, ça me prends dans le bas du ventre, ça me tord le ventre et puis après ça me donne des frissons partout...

flippert0 Yes, and I believe Adele and Lea definitely said they wouldn't choose to work with him again..absolutely a director who paints vivid cinematography tapestries. :)

Actually in an interview Adele stated that she could never eat a gyro/kebab ever again. Even when out with friends and it gets very late where all the eating places are closed except gyro/kebab places she still won't eat it. She mentioned that during the shoot she would have to finish every single bite of the sandwich multiple times. She would have to go and vomit to do it again. She lost weight throughout the duration of the filming, which also helped give a realistic impression since they filmed chronologically.

Lea, however, is the one who had the most difficulty working with Kechiche, Adele sort of followed along, but before long she was saying she would love to work with him again, at one point saying, "I wish I could have him in my pocket" while acting in another film.

Leon Mane well 15 in France isn’t the same as being 15 in the US, teenagers are treated a little bit more adult there.

This is the most beautiful smile, don't forget. If you find better than this, let me know. But I doubt.

Aleksandar The Great I agree, Aleksandar...beautiful smile, gorgeous face...smoky eyes...

Kevin Chocopie she's not, Kevin...she is fresh-faced...It's amazing how many cosmetic companies have HUGE brick and mortars in Paris alone...yet SO many French woman go natural...her barely contained animalism..It's there..plain to see..just bubbles forth..sometimes she just gets her endorphins from that chocolate underneath her bed, sometimes she attacks those gyros..her one with Tomas on the date and this one..and sometimes she just can't help when her vivid dreams and overwhelming desires stir within her body, her very core, and then she comes to the surface from underneath the hot dream of Emma's pleasuring her, only to so desperately need the sweet release that masturbation will provide..Adele is so simple yet complex..and every look, every smile, every action, every word, and every bite of food and every color used in this film is such a careful and deliberate effort of the director (Kerchiche) to add vibrancy and stunning depth to Adele as a person, as a young adult, and, ultimately, as a very sensual and sexual woman on a journey of self exploration..LOL...uhm..I have NO idea if all of that makes sense!! :)

Yet so many French women* (#!&#$# typo)

Kevin Chocopie lol..thank you, Kevin..I should be a movie reviewer..a Siskel to your Ebert...for the millennials!! :) Have a great day!!
