Beyond the Clouds (1995)

Title: Beyond the Clouds
... aka Al di là delle nuvole
Released: 1995
Genre: Drama / Romance
Runtime: 112 min
Country: Italy / France / Germany
Language: English / French / Italian

Plot Summary: Made of four short tales, linked by a story filmed by Wim Wenders. Taking place in Ferrara, Portofino, Aix en Provence and Paris, each story, which always a woman as the crux of the story, invites to an inner travel, as Antonioni says "towards the true image of that absolute and mysterious reality that nobody will ever see".

Comments: An ultimate film. I was stunned by this film. Afterwards, I didn't even want to see any films for a long time- any other film would be so unsatisfying by comparison.

Firelight (1997)

Title: Firelight

Genre: Romance / Drama
Runtime: 103 min
Country: UK / France / USA
Language: English

Tagline: Passion has no limits

Plot Summary: In 1838, lovely governess Elisabeth agrees to bear a child of anonymous English landowner, and he will in return pay her father's debt. At birth she, as agreed, gives up the child. Seven years later she is hired as governess to a girl on a remote Sussex estate. The father of the girl, Charles Godwin, turns out to be that anonymous landowner. So Elisabeth has to be her own daughter's governess, and she can't reveal the secret of her tie with little Louisa.

Comments: Intensely Passionate & Romantic. Sophie Marceau's luminance lights the screen in a romantic and eventually passionate love story in the Dickensian, Bronte, and Austen vernacular. The film, though spare and simple, has an understated elegance which which satisfies all the way to the end. Beautiful production and direction never intrudes nor interferes. Satisfying for an evening by ... firelight.

... aka Student, The
Released: 1988
Genre: Comedy / Romance
Runtime: 103 min
Country: France
Language: French

Plot Summary: Three months before her final examinations, the ambitious teachership student Valentine concentrates herself completely on learning. When Jazz musician Edouard wooes her, she agrees on a date though - planning for one night of pleasure only. But when she comes to know him better, she realizes that he isn't as shallow as she thought... so lust turns to love. But between her examination preparations and a tournee with a jazz band almost no time is left to be spent together.

Comments: I fell in love!! This was the first french movie i had seen, and seeing it made me feel i had been losing out on a great genre. I instantly fell in love with Sophie, who without a doubt, is easily the hottest thing to come out of France after Brigitte Bardot ;-) The movie follows the life of a carrer oriented woman who decides to have a "fling" and then the fling slowly turns into something which she is uncomfortable accepting, as it may interfere with her studies. A beautifully made film, though the track is pretty standard for a June-December romance.


Scene Description: A quick clip of Sophie Marceau topless as she brushes her teeth in the shower.

Personal quotes

"It's great that American cinema poses such a threat. In France we have all these pseudo-auteurs who don't have a new idea in their heads."

"Acting is wonderful therapy for people. Instead of suffering for yourself, someone will do it for you."

"I need the seasons to live to the rythm of rain and sun. In town, It's like you can hardly make the difference between night an day."

"I hate those kisses, you know, American kisses, with the tongues out. They're disgusting. I can't look, it's like porno!"

"What is he, 13 or 11? Perhaps I could play his nanny." Upon hearing Leonardo DiCaprio is a big fan. "

"It's so attractive, too attractive. Your writing becomes more real than your reality. Acting is contained - you act for three months, then leave it - but writing is the act of creation. Writing is dangerous." After writing her semi-autobiographical novel Telling Lies, published in 2001."

"On Leonardo DiCaprio: What is he - eleven? thirteen? I could play his nanny."

"On love rival Isabelle Adjani - 'I'm eight years younger, 3 inches taller and I've got boobs!"

"On Bruce Willis - 'I met him and thought, so what?"
