So Long Michael is a reflective piece that dives into the life of Michael Lonsdale, capturing his essence as both an actor and a person. The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to absorb his thoughts and performances, particularly that final one in La Question humaine. It's not just a documentary; it's more like an intimate farewell, blending Artaud's theatricality with Plutarch's philosophical depth. The atmosphere is a mix of nostalgia and reverence, accented by some interesting practical effects that enhance the storytelling. Lonsdale's performance is, of course, at the heart of it all, and the film manages to evoke a sense of loss while celebrating a rich career. It's a unique piece that lingers long after the credits roll.
