Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975)Extraordinary film exceedingly slow but fascinating to watch. In fact, you can't seem to take your eyes off it while waiting for something to happen. To say Jeanne Dielman lives a life of deadly routine would perhaps give too much away. I loved the use of the static camera as she walked in and out of the frame turning lights on and off as she went from room to room. There is one moment of stark reality which brings one back to one's senses and brings unity to the entire affair. An unusual film, but a must-see, for all film buffs. I highly recommend this film.
