Love in the Afternoon Comments

The last one. Like Claire's Knee, the one-night female collector at Maud's, it tells the story of a middle-aged man who oscillates between morality and lust. The weakening of the sense of film and the natural display of the taste of life are undoubtedly the characteristics of Rohmer and what I love most about him. This film is still the same. So far, the six moral stories series have finished the favorite Claire's...

A/Middle age-marriage-afternoon, life-love-natural wonderful connection. I have always been disgusted with the summary of the laws of gender in love, so I prefer to use it as a careful discussion of the boundaries of love. The tentacles stretched out and retreated because of desire, and marriage became the seemingly intact shell behind it. Simple but rich shots, precise and powerful lines, and psychological tension of plain depiction. BTW middle class is still a term that confuses me...

In the afternoon, I was in a state of fullness and warmth, as if my love for my wife could not get any closer (pregnancy symbolizes a new obstacle for husband and wife), so I thought of lust. From the beginning of the prelude, you can pay attention to the objects that are highlighted at the moment of "clothes": buying clothes to reflect the character of the male protagonist; fantasizing about dating women with different clothes; both the nanny and Chloe have taken off their clothes; clothes of...

A married man with a happy family, but boring afternoons always make him want to. The ex-girlfriend of an old friend came to the door, so his afternoon became colorful. He believed he loved his wife dearly, and he believed he could resist temptation. You must think he ended up cheating, but Rohmer let him escape. But, as Chloe says, her seduction might make other women enjoy the fruits—who...

One of six moral stories. The problem that both men and women encounter, the so-called morality, is something that comes out of fullness, warmth, and lust. This series says that the middle class wants to be both a bitch and a...

After Claire's Knee, what else can Rohmer make? His moral suspense used to be just a trap for women, but now he has no trace of his sophisticated invisibility. Can he surprise us? Rohmer's choice was unexpected, and we have never looked directly at the conspiracy so unguardedly in previous stories: the protagonist has no shyness to fantasize about a tryst with a strange woman in the prologue. When we hide and seek with conspiracy, this is a Hitchcock movie; when we have nowhere to hide from...

Rohmer's One Night at Mauds is about as invincible. The six morals are indeed higher than the level of the four...

The paradox of inner desire has risen to the level of different perspectives of men and women. It is he who puts forward the argument that "the beauty of all women is the characteristic of my wife, and it is also an extension of her", but it is her who is "polygamous", and Chloe exposes the ease. The bubble of fantasy, which clearly shows the difference between love and possession, the difference between lust and conquest, is similar to the one night in Maud's house. Federic's "epiphany"...

My favorite of the moral tales series. Regardless of the lyrical expression at the beginning or the struggle between enthusiasm and rationality later, it is all performed well. The deep and volatile human heart and the chaos and disorder of life can be seen in the operation of daily...
