[Céline et Julie vont en bateau]

1974 - France

Director
Jacques Rivette

I’m still on an absolute high, more than an hour after finishing this film. As if it were my own dream, I’m left with few concrete recollections of this charming, mysterious, elliptical adventure, only the vague impressions and fleeting images of something tantalizing just out of reach. I was entranced by Celine & Julie’s strange imaginations. It is, simply, the best dream I’ve ever had.
