Christine is a ticket-taker at a Manhattan porn cinema. Her ability to separate reel life from real life is seriously impaired in this slow, often silent, and ultimately enigmatic study of a lonely young woman who first despises the porn and then becomes fascinated with it and the clients who attend the shows.

Not bad for the first half of a Rivette movie ;-)

Interesting, dirty, moody little film that left me wanting more. The footage of sleazy New York is great, but I wanted more of a resolution. To save anyone who is as big a nerd as me some time researching, the baseball game the footage comes from was played on October 1, 1983. The Red Sox beat the Yankees 3-2 in 12 innings. Intriguing.

It mostly runs on the mysterious vibe and messaging yet falls short. The sequences where Christine follows Louie around are intriguing, though they're dragged out and repeated enough to lose some of their power by the end. And that's probably the film's biggest detriment: it's largely nerveless, doubtlessly overlong and overall rather boring. On the bright side, the acting is good, there are some funny bits (Jose works as the comic relief), and even the ridiculously abrupt finale is justifiable.
