Too Much is Enough (French: Trop c'est assez) is a 1995 Canadian documentary film by Richard Brouillette. The film, Brouillette's first, won the M. Joan Chalmers Award for best Canadian documentary in 1996.[1]
Synopsis
[edit]Too Much is Enough pays homage to Gilles Groulx (1931-1994), considered by many to be one of Quebec's most important and original filmmakers. Groulx's career was cut short in 1981 after he was seriously injured in a car accident. From 1989 to 1994, Richard Brouillette met regularly with Groulx, recording the latter's thoughts on his work and life.[2] Too Much is Enough combines footage from these sessions, excerpts from Groulx's films and interviews Groulx gave while at the peak of his career.
