No subtitled DVD has ever existed, and I'm not sure a VHS did, either. I'd catch that one if you can, though people also seem to think very highly of <i>Muriel</i>.NicksFlickPickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607501848596529493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15193298.post-5851863895463261622011-07-10T00:19:09.576+01:002011-07-10T00:19:09.576+01:00Yes, there's a whole retro on right now.

I actually can't tell whether I'm more or less excited to see the movie, which is a good thing. And the perplexed reactions to the blatant artificiality and to the free-floating contempt of the Gielgud character for everyone in his little prison-house help me in my year-old attempt to make more sense of Wild Grass, where both of those elements seemed gratuitous and opaque. Thanks for this! Is BFI showing more Resnais soon?NicksFlickPickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04607501848596529493noreply@blogger.com
