VHS Movie Reviews of Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle
Movie Review: ~Charming~
Summary: 4 Stars
Four adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle told a story of two girls who met while on vacation, and decided to share a flat in Paris. Rohmer cleverly portrayed the girls as good friends with opposite characters and temperament. In an attempt to illustrate their differences, he selected a few ordinary incidents that could happen at any given time of the week. Small incident such as giving money to homeless, shoplifting or con artists operating on Paris Metro stations founnd the two girls in constant dialogues, arguing and voicing out their thoughts/beliefs on these matters.... I really enjoy Rohmer's movies and his style of expressing one's thought through superb dialogues. This is, no doubt one of them. If you want to enjoy a relaxing afternoon, watch this. It's funny and light with charming portrayal of the city lives.
Summary of Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle
A minor but wonderful entry in the second of Eric Rohmer's film cycles (this one called "Comedies and Proverbs"), Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle is a 1986 feature about the two eponymous heroines (Joelle Miquel, Jesssica Forde)--young friends of different backgrounds--and their separate, developing ways of looking at nature, society, money, and relationships. The title refers to the film's four chapters, in which Reinette, a provincial girl who wants to become a painter, is invited by Mirabelle, a student, to room with her in Paris. Each section finds the pair comparing their views on things, and ultimately on the topic of talk itself. Typical of Rohmer's remarkably naturalistic style with dialogue for and performances by young people, these characters truly give one the sense of eavesdropping on their sometimes rocky process of establishing individuality. Made simply, the no-frills film is one of those little movies that help clarify and purify the themes and preoccupations of a great artist's better-known works. --Tom KeoghArt House & International VHS Video
