As a parody of Mrs. Dalloway, this film is not only on the surface of the story, but also on the time of the story. The whole film is divided into thirteen chapters (you said why there are thirteen chapters and ten colors are presented at the beginning. What about the tarot fortune-telling plot beyond the three chapters? Hehe) Each chapter is marked with a clear time span. Interestingly, Varda is doing a time molestation that a literary work cannot complete, that is, the narration time coincides with the story time, In the world of literature we can tell a story that takes place in one day and the reader can read it in an hour. The same story time can take a year to read (we have Tristram Shandy and Ulysses), but to have the same story time as the Ulysses The high degree of coincidence of narrative time is not allowed or not allowed by the literary medium, but the film, as a time medium, essentially determines the possibility of this kind of flirting experiment. So we have Varda's interesting experiment. I divided the specific time chapters into chapters, and marked the actual film time as follows (slightly different but basically enough to present Varda's intentions)
Chapter 1 cleo 17h05 - 17h08 (5:14)
Chapter 2 angele 17h08 - 17h13 (8:06
) Chapter 3 cleo 17h13 - 17h18 (13:08)
Chapter 4 angele 17h18 - 17h25 (18:37)
Chapter 5 cleo 17h25 - 17h31 (25:37)
Chapter 6 Bob 17h31 - 17h38 (31:20)
Chapter 7 cleo 17h38 - 17h45 (37:30)
chapter eight quelques autres 17h45 - 17h52 (44:27)
chapter nine dorothee 17h52 - 18h (51:42)
chapter ten raoul 18h - 18h04 (59:06)
Chapter 11 cleo 18h04 - 18h12 (63:11)
Chapter 12 antoine 18h12 - 18h15 (71:52)
Chapter 13 cleo et antoine 18h15 - 18h30 (75:24)
This experiment naturally makes the film very special Narrative text to better help us understand the relationship of narrative time to story time, the relationship of time manipulation to the flow of consciousness, the relationship between the edited narrative film and the pre-edited rough aesthetics (long takes), and more.
Oh yes, as for why the title of the film is 5:00 to 7:00 when it is actually only 6:30, a film review with a high score is very well written, so I won't go into details.
