a film that is sadly less than the sum of its parts, or at least it was for me
we have masterful acting from our two leads, which rightfully won them awards at cannes (sadly one of which was posthumous)
beautiful isolating cinematography

fantômas dir. louis feuillade
my thoughts on this are similar in a lot of ways to my thoughts on les vampires (1915), also by louis feuillade
this is the worse of the two films though,

a river called titus (1973) dir. ritwik ghatak

i have only watched one musical in my life, and have never seen a concert film before, so this was a very interesting experience
and its an interesting concert film to start with as the film is almost entirely devoid of structure

i was really looking forward to this film, anticipating it to rank highly in my opinion

some strong character work, some good emotional payout, but ultimately its walking the same path knives out did, and the 'mystery' such as it is, is not compelling
very interesting use of covid though, rarely see a film where it plays such an important role
