--The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, by Jacques Demy (1964)

A film in which the characters slide "into that pleasureless yielding to the small solicitations of circumstance" (George Eliot). Is the message of the film to yield to those societal-parental-superegoic solicitations, or to fight for desire? Most yield. Most do not want to stay in the lower class. How easily we can be persuaded that we desire what we don't desire. But of course, it's not something as simple as false consciousness, which says nothing of the parallel enticement of socio-economic security and that utterly banal but no less faustian bargain we make when we forfeit our freedom for comfort.

"...the communicative arts, like painting for example... conveys an immediate emotional charge. You like it or you don't, but you should feel something. I think it's the same with film. You should experience some kind of emotion, laughter or tears. If we can get that emotion across, we've achieved our goal."

Jacques Demy, Midnight Sun Film Festival, 1987
