Especially witht the many repeated scenes. <br />It is however a challenging film that has brought something unique to filmmaking. Something that can't be really described but experienced in the viewing. <br />Thanks for passing by Chris!MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366182655374603950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-49034400724312827952013-04-20T04:34:02.864-04:002013-04-20T04:34:02.864-04:00I just watched Céline and Julie Go Boating, it cer...I just watched Céline and Julie Go Boating, it certainly is ambitious and unique. I confess I lost patience with the film midway through. The first half was stronger than the last half, in my opinion.<br />I'm still curious about Rivette's other films, simply because this one is so original, and indeed a one-of-a-kind movie experience. Look out for my review at the end of April.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-54072670040528352972013-03-17T15:31:59.428-04:002013-03-17T15:31:59.428-04:00Thanx Bonjour Tristesse.

They are hard to find and long exercices. I'm not excusing the fact that he doesn't get it, but I'm not that surprised that compared to Godard, Truffaut, Rohmer, Chabrol, etc. he is not as "cool".MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366182655374603950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-6764819983014129742013-03-14T16:37:37.136-04:002013-03-14T16:37:37.136-04:00Playful, elliptical, monumental, one of the most i...Playful, elliptical, monumental, one of the most important films of all time. I couldn't have said it better. <br /><br />It frustrates me, that compared to his peers, Rivette never really gets the recognition he deserves (how is it even possible that Criterion doesn't have this masterpiece in its catalog?). In my mind, he was the most adventurous, and most consistently mind blowing director of the nouvelle vague.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.com
