Eleventh Review for The Collab Weekly Movie Watch
Oh look, someone made a movie based on what I do on every Wednesday?
Jokes aside, this new review as part of the Collab is narratively confusing, but visually splendid. It is so splendid that I would call it revolutionary, with a captivating mis-en-scene that continually improves through the course of the film.
What's even better is not just that the cinematography, production design and direction are all incredible, but with the lack of a coherent and personally uninteresting narrative, this is rewarded with an almost flawless visual narrative. Likewise, the surreal elements add a lot of humor that enhances the viewing experience.
All in all, a dazzling exercise in visual storytelling that finds Jean Cocteau exercising his great talent as a filmmaker of incredible creativity and skill.
