Seyrig Suite

 

 

 

  

 

  

The film is genuinely odd in that it feels like two unrelated tales; Karl (a hit-man) dispatches his victims coolly. Then he enters the tranquil world of Kate and falls in love, with tragic consequences. The film is beautifully shot and well observed, its complex characters interacting and developing.

For no apparent reason Jeanne Moreau appears and sings a song by Stephane Grappelly. There are shades of Rohmer and painterly influences. The French countryside has rarely appeared lovelier. At times the camera simply lingers on a tree or glass which creates an atmosphere. The performances are terrific, Guy Bedos, usually a comedian, plays it straight here with great success. However, the film belongs to Seyrig, one of the most totally underrated and truly great actress' of theatre and cinema.

"I was in my bath when you called"

...or so Delphine Seyrig said in the Losey movie adapted from Harold Pinter : "The Accident" with Dirk Bogard and Jacqueline Sassard.

well, Harold Pinter has died. Who else is going to write about the (un)safety of objects, the slow anguish of common gestures and everyday's life, of all the unsaid secrets in just a look ? Here at Obscure Object of Desire, we wonder and we can already tell you... it's not going to be Luc Besson and its Gremlins generation.

Wanna have a decent movie night ? watch "The Servant" and give yourself a treat.

Fine young Folk

Indie underground secret dark alleys music has always been our thing for a long as bright imposed-commercial-hypochristian music started to creep its horrible shadow over us.

So we decided to rebel in our teens, and this is in this spirit that we present you two bands...

Ava and Ian

with their soft songs and folkish music, it's difficult not to linger in this world of twilight... Ian's voice is heartbreaking on "Belay on"...

and also now ...

The Sparkling Bottles

those two folkish french handsome lads are delightful... Their soft electric guitar style reminds a bit of classic rock band Drugstore. Let's hope they'll make it big someday.

Those two are our obscure music of desire for today...

Goodnight
