The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (Demy 1964)


I am perhaps most surprised by the fact that such a plainly melodramatic film made me feel so little. Which is not to say that I didn't like it; I did. But why I felt nothing, I don't quite understand. Pure aesthetics?

Film: B
Art Direction: A+

Slothrop: I think you meant to give the film a D, judging by thems words of yours? The explanation for which is that you have no hearts nor no souls?
