A four-hour film based on a short story. Something just isn't right here.
A four-hour film about painting. Although the artsy nudity helps usher the non-plot along.
Jacques Rivette actually directed this film pretty late in like. He was 63 years old when the film released and its widely considered his best film ever.
Rivette's working in five different decades including five films in the 2000s and nothing since his shortest film (84 minutes) 36 Views from the Pic Saint-Loup in 2009.
As many minutes as Rivette's films run, you would assume there'd be something appealing about part of it, but there's really not. Snotty people complaining about their lives. There's only so much that I can take of this.
