Last Thursday start the most famous film event in Mexico City: La Muestra International De Cine. This event show recent films that were in the biggest festivals like Cannes and others. This year there are two films that i can't miss: Paranoid Park and The Darjeeling Limited and also i want to see 4 months 3 weeks & two days, but for me is always nice to can watch the rest of the films.
Last weekend i have the chance to see Belle Toujours and i was a little disappointed about the film. Luis Buñuel make Belle De Jour in 1967 and this film is like a second part and a tribute to Buñuel. I have to say that i haven't see Belle De Jour and after see this one i don't feel the need to do it.
Well about the film: Is about this same characters of Buñuel's film that have this secret affair and now 30 years later they met again. The film start in the opera and is very good because is like you are in the concert and when the song ends i almost clap. Later the film doesn't have a real point and for me was a little boring, more in the part when they are eating is a very strange scene. I put 6.6 out of 10 to this film, just for the part in the bar that i really like, is like a film of Jim Jarmsuch, slow and with excellent dialogs between the characters in strange situations.
So i found this as a very strange film that maybe work better without the need to be a tribute to Luis Buñuel.
