That Cinastes de notre temps episode(s) by Rivette must've been great. Excerpts are available with a couple of the Criterion DVDs but I haven't yet seen them.

"When she does notice him we see her fleeing in a couple of unrelated slow-motion studies, her robe and her hair flying behind her. These gorgeous images alone (that lasted less than a minute) would have been worth seeing the film for, and for me they were clearly the highlight."

Me, too. I'd love to see the film again, and hopefully in a theatrical setting. Good point re: Buuel.

I'm glad to have some support for Nana, even though the stylization of one Andre Heuchling remains a point of contention.
