Description:

A magical fantasy world by master filmmaker Jacques Rivette. A time of dizzying cinematic delights... Celine and Julie go by Boat A surreal fantasy of freedom by Jacques Rivette, the genius of the Nouvelle Vague (New Wave) that revolutionized cinema. Julie, a librarian, is reading a book on witchcraft on a park bench in Paris when she accidentally meets Celine, a sorceress, and begins a strange adventure unlike any other. The film, which begins with an opening reminiscent of an "Alice in Wonderland"-like labyrinth, was composed from a script begun by Juliette Berthe, who plays Céline, and Dominique Labrie, who plays Julie. The humorous interactions between the main characters, who freely switch between fantasy and reality, and the variously decorated objects and fashions will captivate the audience and make them fall in love with the Rivette magic. The events that take place in the house are adapted from the novel by Henry James. This playful masterpiece is one of Rivette's most popular works. The Northern Bridge A surrealistic fantasy of freedom by Jacques Rivette, the brilliant director of the Nouvelle Vague (New Wave) that revolutionized cinema.If "Celine and Julie go by Boat" is "Alice in Wonderland," this film, co-starring actress Burle Ogier and her own daughter Pascal Ogier, is a modern-day Rivette version of "Don Quixote. The girl bee-storm who takes on the task of contacting her old lover for a claustrophobic female terrorist who suddenly appears, plays Don Quixote, wearing a leather jacket instead of armor, a motorcycle instead of a horse, and a helmet instead of a helmet. On a game of Sugoroku that coincides with the city of Paris, the actors' bodies, driven by fantasy as they live out their daily lives, are combined with fantasies that emerge from reality. A masterpiece that fascinates with its realistic and mysterious riveting magic.
