all of ophul's post-american films were made in france. lola montes was i believe a french-german coproduction.

French film as a whole just begs to be put on an overrated list, even though there are plenty of good French films.

I like Truffaut flicks.
Destroy Goddard.

I would like to go to a Paris cafe and drink all the drinks that they drink in Tous les garcons s'appellent Patrick, but not on one occasion.

youn, Monday, 4 October 2004 03:23 (twenty-one years ago)

I liked Aime ton Pere.

I like it better when you can see her cul.

there is something sublime about that still. i mean, you're never in doubt that gabin will be able to resist bardot, but at the same time... those legs!

It's all in the arch of her foot, I think.

What I find delicious in that scene is that, while Gabin may be able to resist her, I know I would not.

Will felicity and bnw go with me to see the films that are showing on Monday? If I work on Sunday, can I leave early on Monday?

youn, Saturday, 11 February 2006 23:08 (twenty years ago)

I'm definitely seeing the Garrel on Monday.

C0L1N B... (C0L1N B...), Saturday, 11 February 2006 23:58 (twenty years ago)

I think I will, too. There's a train that leaves at 3:5X pm. I will make up the time tomorrow.

search these 2 curiosities made by frenchies in HWood:
MODEL SHOP - anouk is beyond gorgeous (film is so-so, but Anouk!)
OUTSIDE MAN(more than decent hitman thingy - and Ann-Margret is almost as hot as Anouk!)

phil n. ophuls, Sunday, 12 February 2006 06:51 (twenty years ago)

Of course I was too lame to go.

youn, Tuesday, 14 February 2006 02:28 (twenty years ago)

ohmygosh, I just realized Garrel is the director of Regular Lovers!! I am soooo LAME!!

youn, Friday, 17 February 2006 02:40 (twenty years ago)

i saw a garrel film a few weeks ago which i didn't "get": la révelateur. it was completely silent, and seemed to be a kind of "adaptation" of various lacanian psychoanalytic theories. some of it was undeniably quite striking and beautiful and authentically strange. but it began to feel oppressive and arbitrary after awhile. i had the same thought when watching his very early le lit et la vierge a bunch of years back at the harvard film archive. the only garrel film i've seen that i really liked a whole bunch was j'entends plus de la guitarre. partly because i really like that title. sounds like a leonard cohen song. i'm sort of curious to see la cicatrice interieure w/nico.

in other news a french film from the last year or two which is really good is l'esquive -- i think games of love and chance (ugh) is what the us distributor is calling it.

i wish i could get into that vein of confrontational, sexually explicit french cinema whose exemplary figure is breillat. there's a new film--forgot the title--w/isild le besco and denis levant which sounds interesting but i'd probably be too squeamish for it. apparently it has some almost-hardcore scenes which freaks me out because last i recall ms. le besco was the 15-yr-old ingenue in sade and well, denis levant is denis levant. ew.
