The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
But sometimes the phrase is used to mean country women. I don't know, je ne comprende pas Francaise, nor did I understand what the words in this made-possible-by-a-grant-from-someone mid-seventies art flick. But I do believe I caught what it was saying anyway. Flicking channels I bumped into it. mesmerized, but too tired to stay up and watch I decided I would look for it on line, or in a video store or something. Ha! I had to stay awake and watch the whole thing, I knew I'd never see it again. Life's like that.Sometimes something just catches you. Noticing the phosphorescence on a dark ocean, when you just can't believe the girl asleep beside you, finding an old picture that makes you smile and feel sad at the same time, walking home with the robins starting up, you know, things that creep up on you, make life worth it after all. Hard to imagine anyone will be reading these words, wouldn't be the first time IMDb's been a personal journal for me, but to those who made this, Merci.
