I would prefer to say no one word about this film. But I told Victor so I will.
Of course many critics could put tons of words on it. You see this film and you think of Bergman some of the time, then it is Murnau but more on the Klaus Kinsky and Adjani side, then you feel it is the Six Senth for intellectual, the plot of an abort Hitch, an allegory of a picture in a still position, a second take moving in the parallel.
The big Clock are we within or outside or both? The mechanism is inexorable.
Is what we see real? But yes it is not.
Actors outstanding, Emanuelle�s body is worth the epitaph. Radziwilowicz is perfect.The erotic left me cold, I am not this kind of voyeur.
This film left me cold. Iam just too lazy to follow Rivette, you have to analyse so hard that you keep moving at the slow pace of this film.
Do I regret it? No.
Will I see it again, yes-Maybe.

A matter of not enough wine, perhaps? - Victor Khomenko 11:18:18 10/20/04 (1)
I read a review of it on imdb, and it does sound like a difficult movie to absorb. Apparently one has to get ready and be truly inclined to delve into the particular and unreal world.
Based on what I have read and your post I am not sure I would be the right candidate, but one never knows, and perhaps your second viewing would be more filled with resonance and harmony... who knows...
I'll keep my eyes on it, and when it pops up on the desolated American landscape I might give it a try.
And... as they say in Russia: there are no ugly women, just not enough vodka.

  Well I just check the imdb review and it is quite the truth and very concisely put. It helps to put the story into focus.
  Still I may miss the work from a master because of my own inability to connect with HIS mental world.
  You should rent it.
  It just left me cold.
