faubourg 36 (2009)



christophe barratiers follow up to the chorus is perhaps the most staggeringly beautiful film i have had the pleasure of seeing so far this year. the highly stylised paris that stands as the films backbone looked beautiful in the 70mm print that i saw the film shown on over the weekend. alas i wasnt able to stay for the entire film, so cant really comment on the whole piece, but will say that the first hour was really good, with barratier recycling much of the cast of his earlier film. i look forward to seeing the rest of the film as soon as possible.
