Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle
Eric Rohmer's delightful, episodic account of the blossoming friendship between a gauche, highly opinionated country girl and a more laid-back Parisian student.
Comedy 1986 99 mins
Director: Eric Rohmer
Overview
Made on a tiny budget, a delightful anecdotal account of the blossoming friendship between a gauche, highly opinionated country girl and a more laid-back Parisian student. Seemingly a slight, comic character study, it's actually about how we repond to nature, city life, money, injustice and (this is Rohmer!) language. Who else could make watching a black, wordless screen so magically suspenseful?
