I Love French Cinema
[center]5 Jeanne Moreau films i need to see before i too leave this mortal coil[/center]
1. Elevator to the Gallows - 1958 - why haven't seen this yet, there's no excuse. I have heard the Miles Davis soundtrack though...
2. The Lovers - 1958 The Louis Malle films here (#'s 1, 2 and 4) i have a feeling are among his best films, probably due to Jeanne being in them.
3. The Bride Wore Black - 1968 - one day ...
4. The Fire Within - 1963 - I am intrigued about this one as being an uber depressing take on alcoholism, i do like that sort of thing.
5. Nathalie Granger - 1972 - it's on youtube but without subtitles, directed by Margeurite Duras ... i stand corrected, thankfully, c'est existe!!! Well at least 28 minutes of it in 3 seperate videos, maybe more, the dialogue plays an important part in it so unless i learn French it needs to be translated for dumb schmucks like me haha, Duras was a great author too, up there with Robbe-Grillet, thanks to youtube i have tasted Duras just a tiny bit, and she sure seems like an ascetic compared to Grillet at least, more like Rivette:)
