Summary: Second of a trilogy of films dealing with contemporary French society shows a man dealing with a Polish immigrant whose wife wants to divorce him because he can't perform in bed (imdb)
Unique and still of high quality. Use of colours and music is still grand, just lacked focus. Kieslowski managing to work on all three parts of his trilogy is remarkable and while this one is the weakest, its still great.
I can't believe it's taken me 15 years to get round to seeing this. Wonderfully understated eastern european black humour, and such affection for the Polish characters. For all its laughs, the film has something serious to say about love and desire.
I actually couldn't get my hands on Blue, so I watched White first. It's wonderful. Everyone says that Blue is better, and I can't wait. White is really tight and disciplined, which surprised me. The trilogy's reputation precedes it, and I expected something a little more indulgent. Don't get me wrong, this movie is way too smart for me, and I'm going to have to watch it a few more times before I fully understand it, but the bare-bones plot was damned compelling, and it had me hooked.
Interesting love story in a similar style to the first film of the trilogy, Blue. While it's still a good movie, it didn't impress me as much as Blue did. I'm curious what I'm going to think of Red, as I haven't seen that one yet.
It's fun, and the comedy is good (although I would argue that anti-comedy suits it less than anti-tragedy did Blue), but the scenes with Delpy are so good that it makes the rest of the film seem sort of dull by comparison, even though it's all pretty great. The cinematography is still good, although not a patch on Blue. I can see it being the weak link, but it's still an enjoyable watch.
