L'Eclisse (1962)

Anyone who likes this movie is a sorry pretentious snob. If this was an English film shot today, it would get a B in a high school English class.

Also, some people, genuinely, aren’t meant to be public. Maybe it’s a post-covid thing but the Philly Film Society definitely draws them in. This one guy next to me would like let out a whimper every 10 minutes.

Also, the guy behind me was kinda funny. There was a random black face scene where the main girl just up as a native Kenyan and danced with a spear and then they started talking about how Kenya sucks cause of all the “Monkeys.”  Wild stuff as it felt unrelated to the rest of the movie. Anyway, the guy behind me kept making random sounds indicating disapproval behind me as if to let the theatre know he didn’t fuck with that. Like yeah man, we agree. Just watch the movie. But, then they showed that one of the girls was a hunter in Kenya and showed off her guns. Huge sigh of disappointment. Now I’m not one to compare sighs, but…

This movie sucked and when it ended I’ve never seen a crowd look so disappointed
