Le Pont du Nord
The Female Gaze
July 26 - August 9, 2018
Cinematographers Caroline Champetier and William Lubtchansky telegraph a freewheeling, anything-goes sense of play, as well as a creeping surveillance paranoia, in one of the most elaborate of Jacques Rivette’s sprawling, down-the-rabbit-hole cine-puzzles.
Paris becomes a labyrinthine life-size game board in one of the most elaborate of Jacques Rivette’s sprawling, down-the-rabbit-hole cine-puzzles. Bulle Ogier and her daughter Pascale star, respectively, as a hitchhiking ex-con and a leather-clad tough girl who meet by chance on the city streets, come into possession of a curious map, and find themselves caught in a sinister cobweb of underworld conspiracy. Shooting seemingly on the fly, almost documentary-style on the streets of Paris, cinematographers Caroline Champetier and William Lubtchansky telegraph a freewheeling, anything-goes sense of play, as well as a creeping surveillance paranoia. An NYFF19 selection. The 4K restoration, taken directly from the 16mm negative, was supervised by Véronique Rivette and Caroline Champetier at Digimage Classic, with the help of the CNC.
