Land in Anguish (1967) 60% “It is right when he abandons any notion of plausibility or concern for accuracy, when he returns to allegory, and then opera, that Glauber Rocha seems the most gifted.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Autumn Sonata (1978) 85% “Imagine Autumn Sonata on television, in prime-time... Everything that makes it an antiquated and dull film would then start to "function." [But] watching Autumn Sonata, in the cultural church service atmosphere of a movie theater, is utterly asphyxiating.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Killer Adios (1968) “The best Zeglio film in some time.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Feb 14, 2024 Full Review The Great Race (1965) 69% “A relatively disappointing film, The Great Race is nevertheless one that Blake Edwards dreamt of making for years , the pure cartoon that his previous films foreshadowed. Was he wrong to strive increasingly towards the cartoonish?” – Cahiers du Cinéma Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Annie Hall (1977) 97% “[Allen] is not merely a cinephile-filmmaker as so many are today... he is a filmmaker working from what, in cinema, matters to us now: that every image involves a point of view, that every point of view divides, and that every division is productive.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Feb 14, 2024 Full Review Torre Bela (1975) “Torre Bela is first of all an extraordinary document, the kind that is sometimes produced in the center of a struggle or an an extreme situation, when the determination to "continue to film" prevails over all of the ideas... of the person filming.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Nov 29, 2023 Full Review Eskimo Limon (1978) “In the future, beware of Golan-Globus productions.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Nov 29, 2023 Full Review The Pied Piper (1972) 50% “With this English film, beautiful and inexplicably unprecedented, Demy refines his mythology.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Nov 29, 2023 Full Review Night of the Living Dead (1968) 95% “Clumsily shot, awkwardly acted and as for being scary, completely ineffective.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review The Kingdom of Naples (1978) “A completely astonishing film by Werner Schroeter.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review In Cold Blood (1967) 75% “In Cold Blood, designed to disturb, reassures, designed to bewilder, dots every i (and uses a hammer to do it).” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review A Song of Love (1950) 100% “Compared to this silent film, produced in 1950 by the writer Jean Genet and banned for the following twenty-five years, most films with "love" in the title are likely to be seen for what they are: a sham.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Son of Blob (1972) “Once again, a parody is less effective than what it parodies.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Inspector Blunder (1980) “Coluche has such a strong onscreen presence (like all actors who come from cabaret) that we are not bored by Inspector Blunder, and of course we laugh at it. And yet, although it is not a terrible film, it is a weak one.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review My Sister My Love (1966) “Every face is an open book, but there might be nothing in it to read. Since Stiller, we have rarely seen a filmmaker discover, patiently, the beauty of faces in this way, like something to earn, to conquer.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Daisies (1966) 88% “Madness follows austerity, arbitrariness follows discipline, an orgy of colors follows gray. The inconsistencies in the story, the strangeness of the setting feel effortlessly modern, as does the extremely original use of photography.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Who's Minding the Store? (1963) 57% “Exemplary in its subject, rigorous in its style, troublesome in what eludes it.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review The Departure (1967) “Skolimowski has concealed the threads of his story even more deftly in The Departure than in his previous films . And so he proves that he can succeed at almost anything: for example, a commercial film.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Katerina Izmailova (1969) “A Shostakovich, rightfully unsung and certainly unnecessary to wrench from oblivion.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Incubus (1966) 63% “What remains is two films in one -- with none of Private Property's charms -- a parable and a horror film, both failures.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Warrendale (1967) 100% “Because he takes his premise to the limit, King, surpassing the small, scattered beauties that would have satisfied less demanding filmmakers, achieves the rigor of observation.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Bluebeard's Eighth Wife (1938) 45% “Lubitsch has rarely come so close to zaniness... Made by a man who is confident about himself and his merchandise, the film is no longer about focusing on a flame that consumes itself, but of gathering up, here and there, left and right, the sparks.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Three Days and a Child (1967) “The relationship between Eli and the child is portrayed with an accuracy that is all the more satisfying since it would have been easy to slip into mawkishness or pathos (depending on whether we pity the hero's dark thoughts or the child's innocence).” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 3, 2023 Full Review The Unknown Man of Shandigor (1968) 88% “Jean-Louis Roy's overt ambition to make a comic-strip [is] courageous. But it is strange that no one asked the question of whether the comic strip, when translated to the screen, loses its essential charm (if only that of being drawn).” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 3, 2023 Full Review Closely Watched Trains (1966) 90% “Menzel has the distinction of never raising his voice (choosing a resolutely monotone, neutral tone) and of casting the same gaze, cold and amused, over everything. That dryness is both its value and its limit, which is quickly reached.” – Cahiers du Cinéma Oct 3, 2023 Full Review
