Isabelle Huppert DVD

Heaven's Gate

Kris Kristofferson, Christopher Walken, John Hurt, Sam Waterston, Brad Dourif
This was an excellent accounting of what happened in that infamous time in history. The actors involved were very real. The incidents lifelike too.
I liked it much better than the more recent movie.

I Heart Huckabees

Jason Schwartzman, Jude Law, Naomi Watts, Mark Wahlberg, Dustin Hoffman
As a relative late-comer to this film, about which the most irritating thing for me was the title, I'll have little to add. Firstly, I think it the height of stupidity, even if the studio intended it, that the film is called "I HEART Huckabees". The correct phrasing as I should well know is "I LOVE Huckabees".

Having got that off my chest, I have a huge problem with the toadying up to existentialism and Sartre that goes so hand-in-hand with this film. Existentialism and especially Sartre are NOT FUN.

Coup de Torchon - Criterion Collection

Philippe Noiret, Isabelle Huppert, Stéphane Audran, Jean-Pierre Marielle, Eddy Mitchell
I'm paraphrasing the lines of the hero when he confesses that he has thought and reflected and pondered about his life situation and after sleepless nights and trying to wrap his mind around it, he finally decides that he just doesn't know what the f.... to do. This is how I felt after seeing this film. I lay awake in bed, trying to wrap my mind around it, to make some sense of it and finally decided that I couldn't, and went to sleep.

Tonight I decided to read some of the reviews of Jim Thompson's book on which this film is based, hoping to get some insight into what the film was trying to do and whether or not it succeeded.

Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Impassioned Eye

Henri Cartier-Bresson, Leslie Csuth, Robert Delpire, Elliott Erwitt, Isabelle Huppert
Henri Cartier-Bresson is more than a photographer. This film about him, directed by Heinz Bütler, is based on interviews with Cartier-Bresson late in life, pondering over his own pictures. One cannot help being amazed at this man's work, his personality, and most of all; his inexplicable ability to be in the right place at the right time all over the world, helping us to remember certain historical moment, or everyday life, through the eyes of this special man. He has himself said: "for me photography is to place head, heart and eye along the same line of sight.
