"Blue Valentine" B+, "Sans soleil" (1983) A. Marker turns 90 this summer.

I thought Gosling and Williams (especially Gosling) were terrific; I am not sure how I feel about the "unrelated blocks of scenes from a marriage" structure in the case of two inarticulate characters... or do they seem inarticulate because we are only being shown what we are being shown.

Regarding your IM : But did you ever see Romy Schneiders Sissi-films... B for me {nm} JMT Jan 31, 09:36

Romy is great ! -- Not sure if I've seen the Sissi films -- I liked her a lot in Visconti's segment "Il lavoro" from Boccaccio '70 (1962). {nm} joeoftexas Jan 31, 09:47

Watching ROPE now on German Televison '-Deutsche sprache' yuk, but more brilliant and fascinating than how I remembered it. JMT Jan 31, 12:05
