Lola (Lola (1960))

Описание:

Simultaneously a tribute to Max Ophuls (to whom it is dedicated) and his 1995 film Lola Montes with Martine Carol, Nantes (its setting), American musicals, and the joyous romantic roundelay. The film is centered on the alluring and enigmatic presence of cabaret-dancer Lola, forced to choose between a trio of lovers. Its breezy tone, circling camera and overall brio suggest a certain superficiality, but at its heart lies a wistful awareness that happiness in love is both transient and largely dependent on chance. Very beautifully shot (by the same Raoul Coutard, responsible for the best films of Godard and Truffaut from its time), in widescreen and luminous black-and-white, it is also formally astonishing.
