3.0 out of 5 stars Paris Imagined By Kafka, 12 Nov 2006
By hj (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Since Hiroshima & Auschwitz there has been a malignant force at work in the world. Is it a fascist conspiracy or just a sense of suicidal alienation felt by those who rebel against conformism & "the system"? A naïve young woman joins a fringe drama group putting on Shakespeare's Pericles & gets drawn into an underground subculture & this strange conspiracy paranoia.

PARIS was made before BREATHLESS & 400 BLOWS but released after, which is just as well - if this had come out first it might have killed the French New Wave stone dead. This is not freewheeling new wave fun & certainly not "hip" or "cool". PARIS is a maudlin obscure film. Like other Rivette films, there is a suspicion that the whole thing is based on a rather slim silly premise, much ado about nothing. However, despite being over 2 hours, PARIS is quite intense & becomes peculiarly fascinating. Although a cold war film, it is relevant to the present & the idea that the whole world is engulfed with paranoia about apocalyptic conspiracies & counter-conspiracies, real or imagined. The film leaves a very haunting uncomfortable impression.

This is an excellent DVD from the bfi, extras include an early Rivette/Chabrol short plus a useful introduction from Jonathon Romney who compares PARIS with MARIENBAD & L'AVENTURA. A nice booklet too. So, not an easy or immediately likable film but a unique one, and this DVD is worth getting if you are at all interested in 60s European arthouse cinema.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the new wave, 24 Jul 2008
By Markus Gossas "Markus Gossas" (Stockholm, Sweden) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was actually disappointed with Rivette's Paris nous appartient, without having high expectations. The acting is surprisingly stiff and crud, the plot is just silly and the film is far too long. I wonder how Rivette got people like Godard and Chabrol, icons of the french new wave, to appear in minor roles in the film... This is not a movie representing the nouvelle vague, rather some kind of failed experiment. The omitting of Rivette from textbooks about french 60s cinema seems justified after watching this. Watch something by Godard or Truffaut instead. The DVD from BFI, though, is ok with fine transfer and informative booklet.
