Finally watching Jacques Demy’s 1967 musical THE YOUNG GIRLS OF ROCHEFORT on The Criterion Channel. 🎥
Unsettling, strange, and bold, HIGH LIFE is Claire Denis working in her own cinematic way. A thought-provoking film in the tradition of Marker in exploring ideas, memory, and morality through a distorted lens that looks into our soul.
About to see my most-anticipated film of the year, Claire Denis’ strange sci-fi HIGH LIFE in the theatre. 🎥

Best new-to-me films for April 2019: Icelandic comedy BACK SOON, Danish animated short TORD AND TORD, poetic Chinese KAILI BLUES, and the stunning Russian THE ASCENT.
