In 1955, Éric Rohmer published a series of articles entitled Le Celluloïd et le Marbre in the Cahiers du cinéma. He made a controversial and disenchanted survey of the 20th century, to better enhance by contrast the true modernity of cinema. Ten years later, Rohmer uses this principle in a film where he asks a number of contemporary artists to situate their art in relation to cinema.

Slide show on Raphael’s drawings, produced for the Grand Palais.

A film that begins with: “The Madonnas of the Comberian period still have a very Peruginesque layout” can only belong on this blog, and so much the worse if it is an improbable film without credits and practically without trace. An order that didn’t come through? Notes for a future film? A personal exercise? We don’t really know. In any case, here is our Rohmer in ecstasy in front of Raphael’s sketches, filming them head-on in an attempt to bring out their construction, evolution and beauty. A Jesus on his stomach, then standing up, and our guy is as excited as a flea, which translates into a sepulchral tone of voice (ah this Limousin accent!) and an array of learned words and old-fashioned expressions. It is a scholarly work, which has the merit of lasting only 8 minutes, and which at least gives us the advantage of seeing some paintings by Raphael, ignorant as we are. True to his amateur spirit, Rohmer is content to film his books, in rather random frames. As the film is rather rare and of poor quality, we find ourselves in the heart of the Nouvelle Vague spirit: direct sound and image capture, glorification of craftsmanship, and a mixture of different arts (painting, literature and cinema). The film to watch if you want to know all about Raphael’s pyramidal structures or to be ecstatic about a goldfinch that becomes a book in the hands of an ecstatic Madonna. Or to complete a Rohmer odyssey, too.

Quote:
Louise lives with Rémi in Marne-la-Vallée. He is an architect, she is an interior decorator. Their lives would be perfect if Rémi were less of a homebody, and if Louise were not such a night owl. Conscious of preserving her independence, Louise rents a pied-à-terre in Paris. Octave, her friend and confidant, is always ready to accompany her during her night prowls. One evening, beneath a full moon, and Octave’s jealous, loving gaze, she succumbs to the charms of a sensual dancer. As day breaks she realises, however, that she would much rather be with Rémi.
