series From the Third Eye: Evergreen Review on Film
Directed by Marguerite Duras | 1969
With Catherine Sellers, Michael Lonsdale, Henri Garcin
Influential French writer Duras (Hiroshima mon amour) made her solo directorial debut with this adaptation of her own novel. Grove Press Film Division described it as “a hypnotic and haunting film about five alienated people isolated in an unworldly hotel. Enmeshed in a ritualistic power game, they inexorably assume interchangeable personalities as each acts out his own ambiguous charade. With a highly stylized, terse dialogue, Miss Duras creates an uncanny atmosphere that evokes nightmarish, cosmic fear and enigmatic power exploding in a mysterious climax of revolutionary destruction.”
