I understand Bertolucci's obsession with the beauty of Eva Green, but when each openly erotic scene feels slightly less than the previous one, this trilogy falls into sadly forgettable average. The pleasantly nostalgic feeling disappears, the story drowns itself, and only occasional beautiful shots (such as Eva as Venus) can pull me out of the excessive constraint. As a result, this dream leaves me completely unaffected, despite the fact that the entire form aimed much higher.

An eye candy solution to the schematism around 1968 and the affair of French cinema. Fortunately, more important than Henri Langlois is the knowledge of films with Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich, and the application of cinematic pleasure to domestic orgies. So you feel like masturbating in front of a picture from Blue Angel? Enjoy and forget about Godard.
