Movie Favorite

"This is many people’s least favorite Rohmer film. Yes, the main character is a bit charmless, but the film is astonishingly pure – the story of one man’s journey on foot through Paris, over the course of a few days. It’s also quite dark. We follow the main character's descent into vagrancy, and gradually – like him – start to see Paris from a perspective very unusual for 1950s movies: distant, cold, alienated. A brilliant anomaly among Rohmer’s films. "

I so enjoyed this slow burn! The Paris Apartment is a psychological thriller, and it kept me turning the pages, desperate to find out what had happened to Jess’ half brother, Ben.

Everything feels threatening: the apartment block, the other inhabitants and even Paris itself. There are riots taking place throughout the city, and Jess can’t seem to find anywhere that feels safe. Hey, even I didn’t feel safe reading it!

But could I put it down? Absolutely not!
