Le genou de Claire


Director/Writer: Eric Rohmer
Stars: Jean-Claude Brialy, Aurora Cornu and Béatrice Romand
Year: 1970 (France)
IMDB

My Rating: 7/10

This movie is a long conversation about friendship, love and desire. It's pretty much just conversations, not much going on, you could say that it's Rohmer's realistic approach. But the characters often explicitly speak of their thoughts and emotions, which seems quite unrealistic in the realistic films. I guess you could call that Rohmer's cinematic language. I don't particularly like his style, but this film is good, beautiful and worth seeing.
