| Rendez-vous a Bray (1971) André Delvaux - passage - 166 sec
La la la la
la la, la laa, la...
"Au début du film, en se préparant à partir à Braye-la-Forêt, Julien entend, puis voit, dans la cour sur laquelle donne la fenêtre de sa modeste chambre (adresse : 13bis rue St-Louis en l'île), une petite fille qui joue à la marelle. Elle chante le premier couplet d'une comptine :
Six, cinq, quatre, trois, deux, un et une,
Mon oiseau a perdu ses plumes.
Plumes de bois et plumes de fer,
Nous nous retrouverons en enfer.
Plumes de fer et plumes de bois,
Le paradis n'est pas pour toi.
Le lendemain matin, lorsque Julien renonce à prendre le train pour Paris et quitte la gare de Braye-la-Forêt (pour retourner à La Fougeraie ? La fin reste ouverte...), on entend, en voix off, le second couplet, qui est identique au premier, hormis le dernier vers :
Le paradis est pour le Roi.
Quel oiseau a perdu ses « plumes de fer » ? Jacques Nueil, aviateur de guerre, est-il mort ? En se substituant à lui, Julien devient le Roi et trouve le paradis -- mais les vrais paradis sont les paradis qu'on a perdus..." Peter Kravanja

| Hotel Monterey (1972) Akerman - passage - 365 sec
"In the first of Akerman's longer feature films the camera becomes the actress who, with extended takes and tracking-shots, is moved through the empty spaces of the New York hotel of the same name—creating an architectural study likewise a psychic space."
FYI:Original film is silent, I added the music.

| Un Homme qui dort (Queysanne, Perec - 1974) passage - 353 sec
"You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait. Do not even wait, be quite still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked. It has no choice. It will roll in ecstasy at your feet."

| Toute une nuit (1982) Akerman - ending - 322 sec
"Akerman's framing and panning are as severe as in her previous films, yet the duration of her shots is lighter, more elastic, reflecting the ephemeral feel of the passing fancies she captures -- a notion expressed in the closing passage with sublime consequences for Tsai Ming-liang and Claire Denis, Clément dreamily swaying with her lover through a reverse tracking-shot down a corridor while in the soundtrack their romantic Italian chanson battles it out with the disembodied honking of cars implacably ushering in the early morning, and reality."

| Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1976) - 150 sec
"Akerman's cinema focuses our attention on her smallest gestures, gestures that reveal character but would be lost in a more flamboyant film: a knife that almost slips when a potato is peeled, a light turned off unnecessarily, a facial expression of disquiet or of frustration, the curious act of making coffee in a thermos in the morning for drinking at lunchtime. The effect of such details, repeated and ritualized, is cumulative. Slowly the portrait is pieced together." Jayne Loader

| Un coeur en hiver (1992) Claude Sautet - ending - 313 sec

| Un coeur en hiver (1992) Claude Sautet - passage - 353 sec
"When Camille delivers her finest performance at the recording studio, the moment proves to be a turning point, not only in her professional career, but in her personal life as well. In essence, her performance becomes a validation of her connection with Stephane. Stephane has perfected the precious instrument entrusted to him, and now Camille has realized its exquisite potential. The passionate music becomes a recorded testament of Stephane and Camille's creative union - an intimate expression of their unrealized bond." Acquarello
