Melo
France 1986, 112 minutes
Dir. Alain Resnais
English
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / Romance
Aroview: New Wave dir. Resnais explores unusually restrained, linear territory in this bittersweet melodrama centered around a love triangle between longtime friends.
Originally a drawing-room play, Resnais adheres fairly rigidly to its theatrical roots, casting a loving eye to his flawed characters through the use of long-takes and elegant cinematography. Andre Dussollier's tragic, six-minute monologue is a highlight.

2 stars (Good Try) The performances are fine but the screenplay is limited in its breadth. ~Tubbs
