Taschen: Movies of the 60s

Fantastic. My favourite of Truffaut's films and Jeanne Moreau's finest role.

A fine piece of British social realism. Rita Tushingham puts in a brilliant performance.

Simply a masterpiece.

A simple plot of a man trying to convince a woman that they had an affair the previous year, yet still a complex puzzle which will take more than one viewing to fully undertand.
The black and white cinematography is beautiful. The tracking shots through the corridors of the baroque hotel are also sublime.
A truly unique experience.

Great film with Gregory Peck on top form as Atticus Finch.

Peter Sellers provides the best performance of the whole film.

Powerful performances by both Richard Harris and Rachel Roberts.

Disappointing compared to Tony Richardson's earlier films.

The best part of the film has got to be:

THE HIGHWAYMAN:"Stand and deliver!"
MISS WESTERN:"What?"
THE HIGHWAYMAN:"Stand and deliver!"
MISS WESTERN:"Deliver?Deliver what?I am no traveling midwife!"

"Are you a Mod or a Rocker?"
"Actually I'm a Mocker"

Even if you are not a fan of The Beatles this is a highly enjoyable film. John, Paul, George and Ringo provide their own unique brand of comedy plus some classic early Beatles tunes.

An excellent portrayal by Deneuve of a young woman slowing slipping into madness.

Brigitte Bardot and Jeanne Moreau frolic round early 1900's Central America, leading a revolution, blowing things up, and inventing the striptease along the way. Sounds good? Sadly, that's not really the case. Bardot, Moreau and Malle have all done better things.
