I know this has nothing to do with Indian cinema, Nevertheless - folks in NY this is a great opportunity to check out some good cinema. My interest specially lies in this one - wish I was in NY



THE INTRUDER / L'INTRUS
Claire Denis, 2004; 123m
"With each new film, Claire Denis becomes more daringly cinematic, eschewing convention and seeking a unique visual language to tell her stories….In THE INTRUDER, conventional narrative storytelling has been replaced by an attempt to tell a story in purely visual and aural terms. The dialogue has been stripped down to bare essentials, while the image - sumptuous CinemaScope color shot with incomparable skill by Agnès Godard - assumes a privileged position…. THE INTRUDER is a film that literally comes at us in shards, pieces of reality that Denis challenges us to assemble. Gradually our focus comes to rest on a white-haired man, Louis (Michel Subor), who takes money out of a Swiss bank and ends up somewhere in Asia. Slowly the fragments of Denis's deliberately foggy narrative start to come together as we discover Louis is trying to reconcile his past with events in the present…. At a point in time when dialogue-driven projects and the primacy of the script reign across the world, it is most refreshing to see that artists of distinction are still creating films that make us realize there are other options available." - Piers Handling, 2004 Toronto International Film Festival. A selection of the 2004 Toronto, Montréal and Venice International Film Festivals.
