jacques rivette
all rivette's films are worth watching, including out 1, here are some of my favourites
L'amour fou
Performance and disintegration, a couple literally destroy their identities and environment over an extended duration
celine and julie go boating
my first rivette film, found at home- magical, films within films, delirious with imaginative possibility
duelle
dreamlike, beautifully mysterious and enigmatic, the meeting of sun, moon, sorcery and goddesses
noroit
sea, dance, female conflict and murderous tragedy with experimental film stock
le pont du nord
actresses exploring plots and roles, mother and daughter or strangers? conspiring, coded games set in his city of paris
the beautiful troublemaker
the creation of a painting which could break apart four character's lives
