6.1/10

Barres
6.7/10
The 1984 short Barres celebrates the ingenious ways one can get onto the Paris Metro without paying.
Origins of a Meal
7.2/10
Bananas, eggs, and tuna: three basic foodstuffs with three wildly different points of origin. Moullet begins with these on his plate but constructs his film by working backwards and finding the sources for these items and how they reach our plates. As Moullet’s investigation deepens, however, the film moves beyond the confines of a simple exploration of food origins into more political and social realms, not only relating to food but also to the medium of film.
The Man Of The Badlands
6.4/10
A documentary about Luc Moullet and the mountainous locations that feature in his films
2000 Cinématons
A film about an ongoing cinematic adventure that began in 1978: a vast anthology of personality portraits called Cinématons, dealing with people in the arts. Historical, ethnological, sociological and psychological, this anthology is a living record of the artistic community of the last 20th century which attempts to answer these questions: Why film everyone? Why choose cultural personalities? How do the subjects look at their image? How much exhibitionism and narcissism is involved in being filmed?

Luc Moullet (et Patricio Guzmán) à Manosque III

Luc Moullet (Éric Pauwels et Jeon Soo-Il) à Manosque I
Chambéry-Les Arcs
La rouge et la noire
6/10
Carrying on Luc Moullets unfinished screenplay about the theft of la pénélope, a camera created by Aaton and capable of recording equally well in 35 mm and digitally, LA ROUGE ET LA NOIRE is a film in kaleidoscope form. The portrait of Aatons founder, Jean-Pierre Beauviala creator, inter alia, of the time-code and the light cameras used by the New Wave (in particular the bush camera specially designed for Jean Rouch) is centered around the basic plot introduced by two women thieves who talk as voice-overs, and whose identities will only be revealed at the end.
Land of Madness
6.4/10
Moullet explores the causes and consequences of cases of mental disorders that were especially numerous in the Southern Alps.
Le jeune cinéma : Godard et ses émules
Influenced and inspired by Jean-Luc Godard, some young french directors (Jean Eustache, Francis Leroi, Jean-Michel Barjol, Romain Goupil, Luc Moullet) are talking about their problems in producing less expensive and more free films in the french industry of cinema of the 60's.
Cocktail Morlock
A Girl Is a Gun
5.4/10
The intense and twisted relationship between a man and a woman in a bizarre wilderness, as a seductress accompanies a gunslinger fleeing from a posse.
Le journal de Joseph M.
Imphy, capitale de la France
6.8/10
La leçon de guitare
7.2/10
A man with nothing to do all day decides to take guitar lessons. He falls for his music teacher’s flatmate who flirts with him slightly and even has the same name as the Serge Gainsbourg chanson he’s struggling to learn “Laetitia”. Not so much a passionate love story as a finely woven, laconic film about what it’s like to be just that little bit in love.
