hello, i just saw your post on adieu philipine. my mother is yveline cery and she is always surprised how often this film is mentioned in discussions, festivals ect... so nice to see the appreciation for it, after all these years. regards, laurent
adieu philippine is on the one hand, chaotic and fun, and is a landmark film in many ways; it is unfortunately, however, a bit sophomoric and rozier' s inexperience as a beginning director shows. on the one hand, some of the visuals are beautiful and perfectly pitched: the lyrical interludes between scenes, such as the two girls walking along a summery paris street set to the rhythm of a tango, are nearly perfect. but often the soundtrack swings into the territory of the garish: too much pop, overly loud – you can barely hear the girls talking in the restaurant in a scene which should have been very naturalistic – and there are huge chunks of the movie, especially after they return from the ‘adventure’ hunting down the deadbeat producer – which seem badly edited and misplaced. what was up with that very long hula - esque dancing sequence with the two girls in the holiday camp, for example? it didn’t contribute to the atmosphere and seemed to me stylistically gratuitous, dull .
positively sizzles with energy and authenticity throughout, and it genuinely does feel like rozier has somehow managed to distil the whole of the french new wave into a single, one hundred minute feature. the obvious technical imperfections add to the film' s striking impressionistic feel - rozier' s intention clearly was not to make a polished piece of cinema, but to seize life as it is, in a similar' sur le vif' manner to the painters monet and renoir, showing us not just the vitality and insouciance of youth but also its trepidations and uncertainties. the main characters' sojourn in corsica is shot with breathtaking artistry and is devastatingly poignant as we see all too clearly what it signifies: the last days of youth slowly fading from view, never to return. the final shot leaves us mourning the fact that michel' s sweet summer is over - he will soon be on his way to algeria, to face the horrible realities of war in a strange and hostile land. the bitterest adieu of all is the one which we must bid to our youth .

michel (jean - claude aimini) works as a technician at a television station where one day he picks up two starstruck teenage girls liliane and juliette (yveline cery and stefania sabatini), and begins casual affairs with both of them. at first, neither realise that the other is seeing michel and they independently fall in love with him. the film follows several successive dates and experiences he has with them separately and together; however when the girls discover that he has been seeing them both, jealousies and petty arguments begin to tear their triumvirate relationship apart .
michel goes to corsica to escape the girls and to his increasingly complicated life. they follow him, however, to his holiday camp and convince him to chase after a film director who owes him money, who also happens to be filming nearby. they travel by car to search for the film director, but their close proximity now only exacerbates their romantic situation and michel finds himself flip - flopping between the girls as their jealousy and arguments mount. however, like many youthful love affairs, the situation ends in limbo, with the girls standing on the quayside and michel aboard a boat bound for algeria and national service .
jacques rozier is one of the lesser known of the nouvelle vague directors, and this, his first feature, is probably his best - known work. using improvisation and a cinema verité approach, he endeavoured to bring a sense of realism to his stories, most of which, like this one, are concerned with the mixed up lives of teenagers .
overall, though, an enjoyable effort and impressive for a first feature film. there are some gorgeous mis - en - scene, somehow simultaneously imbued with both a kind of quiet reflectivity and a buzzing adolescent energy. the scene with the wasps on the pebble beach is lovely –
is fantastic at capturing the naturalness and vibrancy of youth and at evoking a sense of real speech (although perhaps because much of the script was improvised). in any case, this is real youth, not a nostalgic rumination on youth. i’m not so sure i buy into the relationship between the two girls (they seem quite quick to become chummy with each other, for no particular reason, only moments after fighting bitterly over the same man), but perhaps their fickleness is a perfect fit for the kind of lovely, chaotic, capricious spirit of this film .

is a forgotten classic of the french new wave, a marvelous, free - spirited film that hasn' t received anywhere near the acclaim of the contemporaneous early offerings of the more famous new wave filmmakers. it was the first film of jacques rozier, shot in 1960 and only finished in 1962 due to production difficulties. though rozier is far from a household name in comparison to the other new wave directors — indeed, after this film failed he didn' t make another feature for over ten years — this debut deserves to be mentioned along with
as a remarkably assured and joyous first leap into filmmaking. it' s a loose and improvisational film, shot like many of the other early new wave films on the fly, in the streets and anywhere a camera could be quickly set up. frequently, in the outdoor shots, passersby openly gape at the camera, stopping to stare, and rozier mirrors this acknowledgment of the film' s artifice in the metafictional, semi - documentary sequences that take place at a tv studio, where the film' s central character michel (jean - claude aimini) works as a camera assistant. the film' s credits roll, in staggering stop / start fashion, over a sequence set in the tv studio, where everyone is bustling around, rolling cameras frantically around the set, punching the sound in and out as they film a jazz combo performing. in the midst of this chaos, michel fixes on a pair of cute girls gawking outside, liliane (yveline céry) and juliette (stefania sabatini), and invites them in to watch. indeed, whenever the tv crew is filming, there are always people standing by and watching, and at one point michel stumbles into a shot, walking across the frame of a melodramatic period costume drama, looking stupidly into the camera in his white t - shirt and jeans, an intruder from the modern era, from outside the narrative, like all the random people who rozier' s camera captures in the streets around his protagonists .
that loose sensibility winds through the film, giving it a jazzy, spirited vibe as michel flirts with both girls, trying to decide who he wants more, as the girls, inseparable best friends, engage in a competition that' s initially friendly and joking, but soon gives way to jealousy and hurt feelings. this love triangle drama, played lightly but with real feeling, plays out against the constant threat of the algerian war: michel knows that he will soon be summoned for the draft, and that promise of the future lingers over the entire film as an inescapable climax. the girls try to get him out of the draft, but their plans quickly peter out and michel, for his part, seems fatalist about the whole thing, viewing his future service as an unavoidable destiny. with this fate hanging over him, michel hangs out with his buddies, buys a car with them to pick up girls, plots to break into commercial filmmaking, and finally decides to go on vacation while waiting to be called up for the military .
the film has a casual, episodic feel that befits its amateur shoot and its mostly inexperienced cast of non - actors, the bulk of whom never acted in another film before or after this one. it feels like a film of observation, of documentary, observing the life of this young military - age man in the months before he' s sent to war. the film' s joyful tone and light sensibility thus seem fragile, subject to shattering at any moment, and there' s a current of mournfulness running through everything that happens, as though the film is simultaneously a celebration of and an elegy for the freedom and serenity of youth. the film' s characters are young and innocent, and their flirtations and their dalliances are inflected with that innocence; michel genuinely can' t decide which girl he likes best, and indeed he seems to like them best together, while the girls try to tell themselves that they' re not taking any of this too seriously, that it' s all just a game. in any event, their friendship and their affairs seem to have an expiration date as michel' s impending enlistment approaches .
nevertheless, rozier keeps the tone predominantly airy and fun, with a strong thread of humor. liliane' s employer, the producer pachala (vittorio caprioli), is especially humorous as a parody of the commercial aspects of the cinema — both literally, in the sense that he makes advertisements, and metaphorically as an icon of all the money - men and dishonest manipulators serving as middle - men in the film industry. rozier had his own troubles with producers —
languished unfinished for nearly two years due to conflicts over money, and only the intervention of rozier' s famous friend godard could marshal the production support necessary to finish the film — and his mockery of pachala is a hilarious, biting commentary on the intersections of art and commerce .
pachala (played, perhaps not coincidentally, by one of the few professional performers in the cast, an italian actor who worked with rossellini and fellini) fancies himself an artist, but in fact he just makes lousy commercials and rips off his collaborators, disappearing whenever he owes some money. a shoot for an arctic - themed refrigerator commercial with a flimsy igloo is a comedy of errors, reflecting pachala' s odd choices of details to get concerned with: he shrugs off the fact that there' s a palm plant in the supposedly snowy set, but gets fixated on the store owner' s refusal to remove his tie while posing as an eskimo. even better is the scene where he shows a detergent sponsor the rushes for another commercial the girls starred in, and there doesn' t seem to be a usable take — one where the girls aren' t giggling uncontrollably or knocking over detergent boxes — in the whole reel, as pachala sinks lower and lower in his seat next to his corporate sponsor. later, pachala shows up again as a producer of
photo - romans ,
narrative sequences of still photos, with a sleazy interest in baring the breasts of his actresses and a corresponding disinterest in the niceties of historical recreation; he just shrugs it off when modern boats show up in the backgrounds of his photos of supposedly ancient subjects. he' s a hilarious character, a target of rich mockery every time he shows up on screen .
are contrasted against the joyful, of - the - moment attitudes of the young people — and against rozier' s own partially improvised, free - wheeling methods. pachala represents the old ways, the tradition, the closed system of money and patronage in which young artisans like michel and his friends are simply exploited and cheated. the film' s tribute to the young is thus a tribute to the new wave itself, in opposition to those vested interests, to the cheesy production values of the costume dramas that michel works on or the silly commercials and trashy quasi - porn of pachala .
and the other early works of the new wave, films with life and energy in every frame .
rozier' s images are at times sweepingly romantic, particularly when the central trio go away on vacation to corsica — a last vacation, it seems, before adulthood and responsibility. there are so many great scenes here, so many wonderful moments, like the sequence where liliane is serenaded by a hitchhiker and slow - dances with him, silhouetted against a foggy valley with the moon a distant glowing coin in the hazy night. there' s also a meditative boat ride with the three principals filmed from behind, their faces towards the sun. more often, they' re facing the camera, and their faces say a lot, even in the scenes where rozier — who used primitive sound equipment and post - dubbed almost everything — omits the dialogue from the soundtrack. the faces of the girls, especially, are expressive and unforgettable, ranging from their giggly camaraderie and sly smiles of complicity to their moments of melancholy quiet and pensiveness. everyone gives endearing amateur performances, witty and vibrant, and there' s a sense of playfulness in all of the actors, as well as in the jagged camerawork and uneven sound, which mixes on - the - street verité with studio dubbing. the film has a real sense of physicality and corporeality, whether in the tv studio sequences of the first half or the seashore idyll of the second half, in which rozier potently captures the feel of the sun and the ocean, the girls in their bikinis and one - pieces, the laughter and jealous rivalry during the car rides along scenic winding roads that crawl, serpent - like, towards no place in particular .
still, throughout this scenic and spirited movie, a troubling scene from earlier lingers in the memory: one of michel' s friends has just returned from the army and from algeria, and when michel asks about it, the friend simply refuses to talk about it. it' s just a single line, a momentary pause in the midst of the young man' s joyous homecoming, but it reverberates with all the unspoken torment of the war, all the things that these characters are so intent not to address, to erase in pleasure and play. politics enter the film explicitly only in a single scene in which michel' s family discuss technology, china and economics in a manner very familiar from any family' s dinner table political discussions. it has that feel of real working class people glossing over these massive international topics with their rhetoric and their insistent if incompletely informed opinions. if the rest of the film never addresses politics explicitly, never discusses the algerian war in any detail, the war and its effects on generations of young french men remain the subtext of nearly every scene. the war makes the characters' youthful games finite, sets an end date for their flings and their destination - free wanderings, and in that respect
is about growing up into the world, about how the political affects even those who steadfastly ignore anything political, as these characters do. more than that, though, the film is about the joy of youth, about the joy of simply
provides a more complete rejection of the ethos of war and death than any more explicit commentary could .
ed, i love seeing that you' re writing about this. i haven' t tracked it down yet (it' s never been very easy to find). but it' s always mentioned among the crucial early new wave works, some of which are still tough to find in the states - - a couple of rozier films, and then things by jean rouch, michel deville, jacques becker, and alexandre astruc .
thanks, jeffrey, it' s definitely worth seeking out. there' s a nice set of rozier' s films out in france (with english subtitles) and i' m eager to check out some more of them now; if his later works are anywhere near as good as this then i really don' t get why he isn' t better known .
ed, i saw david ehrenstein last night at the quad cinemas during the 9: 45 p. m. showing of the making of the boys in the band. mind you i didn' t see our friend in person, but rather he was featured in the documentary, briefly speaking about the period when the film was made, about one - fifth of the way into the film. i was shocked by teh revelations on stanley kauffmann, who has always been my favorite film scribe over the years. crowley was present at a q & a that followed the preceeding show. sorry for the diversion, i will get back on track with my next comment here .
the film has a real sense of physicality and corporeality, whether in the tv studio sequences of the first half or the seashore idyll of the second half, in which rozier potently captures the feel of the sun and the ocean, the girls in their bikinis and one - pieces, the laughter and jealous rivalry during the car rides along scenic winding roads that crawl, serpent - like, towards no place in particular .
ed, you have me salivating over this one, which i' ve never seen, though have heard of. that remarkable comparison with breathless and the 400 blows as a maiden effort is telling enough, but your subsequent celebration of the film' s bevy of buffo sequences further explores the exceeding excellence which reminds me of mike leigh in ways and bresson in others. (episodic feel, amateur shoot, non - professional actors) and the exhilaration you speak of reminds me of renoir' s une partie de campagne. you' ve really peeled off the layers of this film to produce yet another masterful essay that sits with your finest. i really must seek this out pronto. no lip service here .
i figured you for a fan of this one, david. i' m glad you mentioned the looong goodbye of the ending, a very moving sequence that really does make it seem like the girls are waving goodbye to their youth, to their innocence, and not just to the guy they spent the summer with. the ending just keeps going, with the girls running along the rock walls to keep the ship in view, as though they' re reluctant to let go, to let michel — and their youth — slip out of view. it' s very touching. interesting connection to celine and julie, i can definitely see it. i know both rivette and rohmer praised the film when it first came out, and it' s easy to see why. in various ways it complements both of their aesthetics, with its improvisation and emphasis on femininity (michel becomes very much a secondary character in comparison to the girls) and its obvious affection for youth. sam, it' s definitely one to seek out (and i bet allan has seen it and / or has a copy). of the names you cite, there' s not the least trace of bresson here, but renoir and leigh are pretty good reference points. really, though, it' s very much a new wave film in every way, and as such it fits mostly comfortably beside the early works of truffaut and godard, as well as predicting in some ways the later films of rohmer (the summery locales, the sensuality of youth, the deceptively light mood wrapped around deeper and more melancholy themes). (and thanks for the info on the david sighting! sounds cool. )
so glad making the boys is finally coming out. they shot me for it several years back. haven' t seen mart in quite awhile. he' s a swell guy, and the film shows why. especially interesting are the home movies shot at roddy mcdowell' s beach house with judy garland and rock hudson present. it just doesn' t get any gayer !
laurent, thanks so much for checking in. it' s an extraordinary film and your mother gave a wonderful performance in it, so much so that i was startled to see that she didn' t go on to act more .
bonjour, excuse delayed response. she is looking to do some vo work in nyc / boston area when not in france. also may do a special screening sometime this year where she will discuss this little film once we track down rest of cast. best, laurent
this is in response to the poster who was told untruths about stanley kauffmann. stanley kauffmann was a great champion and friend to the lgbt community. the slam against kauffmann is absolutely false, a lie that' s made the rounds through retelling by acolytes of the alcoholic edward albee. kauffmann argued forcefully in the nyt that gay theater artists should have exactly the same rights as straight playwrights, including the right to have gay sex scene onstage. he was a great friend to to our community. too bad people are still spreading lies about a champion to our community, beloved by lgbts including susan sontag, martin duberman, eric bentlely, among the most brilliant minds of the 20th century. don' t believe the lies. in his reviews he argued for transgendered kids to wear dresses or jeans, their preference to school, he championed the conccept of lgbt teachers being frank with their students about their lives as lgbt cintizens in this country, in theatre he is responsible, as the village voice reported from a writer who studied with kauffmann, for hundred of lgbts jobs in theatre and film over the decades. again, please do believe the lies spread by edward albee' s acolytes who know the truth. edward albee even wrote a letter of congratulations after kauffmann wrote his piece. edward albee got furious because he, and other critics, hated his new play, including lgbt critics. albee, severely alcoholic, blamed kauffmann for his loss of standing. he never apologized for his drunken, disgraceful behavior, nor have his acolytes. just because someone is gay, it does not follow he tells the truth. i remember reading an article in the advocate that charged penelope gilliatt with being a homophobe what a damnable lie. she wrote an essay supporting lgbt rights, including marriage and adoption in the 1950s in england. her short stories included lgbt characters. she wrote the screenplay to sunday bloody sunday, most of her best friends were gay, including playwright joe orton. but the advocate called her homophobic. . another disgraceful lie against a straight supporter. don' t believe albee' s acolytes. on their side, it' s all a dirty melange of lying and character assassination .

in his first feature, made in 1960, the director jacques rozier celebrates youth, beauty, and exuberance in the shadow of france’s dirty war in algeria. the title alludes to a playful contest between two teen - age girls, juliette (stefania sabatini) and liliane (yveline céry), for the heart of michel (jean - claude aimini), a young parisian television technician two months away from his mandatory military service. their lighthearted yet earnest flirtations in the city lead to a shaggy - dog ramble through corsica, but the knowledge of how it must end—with michel’s deployment to algeria—tinges the carefree wanderings with a worldly sadness. rozier revels in the new era of rock music and club med, and his wondrous images raise the delicate rituals of adolescent courtship to a poignant comic grandeur. the girls’ two - minute jaunt through the streets of paris in quest of a pay phone feels like a dance that should never end. in french .

an important if little known nouvelle vague film. the youthful spirit of the story about a young man, his two female companions and his last summer of freedom embodies the movement perfectly .
michel is a young technician in the fledgling tv industry and is due for military service in two months at the time of the algerian war. juliette and liliane are inseparable best friends, and aspiring actresses, who hang around outside the tv studio. michel invites them in to watch, flirts with them both, and dates them separately and together. when michel goes on a holiday to corsica, just before he is drafted, the girls follow .

aris, in the summer of 1960. michel is a young frenchman who, just before he is due to start his military service in algeria, works as a television studio trainee. this is how he comes to meet two attractive young women, liliane and juliette, two aspiring actresses who, alas, have only enough talent to appear in the worst kind of television programmes. to make the most of the summer before he is drafted into the french army, michel decides to take a long holiday on the island of corsica. the two girls agree to accompany him and share his last few weeks of freedom ...
was enthusiastically received by the critics and immediately singled out as one of the most emblematic films of the french new wave. yet it wasn' t directed by one of the established pillars of the nouvelle vague - françois truffaut, jean - luc godard or jacques rivette - but by an unknown, first - time film maker jacques rozier, who would always remain a peripheral, almost forgotten figure of the movement and aesthetic that his debut film so perfectly epitomised. the importance of
isn' t that it encapsulates the french new wave, but that it reflects so much of the character of the era in which it was made. with its spontaneous celebration of youth and life, it vividly evokes the joie - de - vivre and freedom of the 1960s, but there is also an underlying and unmistakable sense of melancholia through its discrete allusions to the algerian war. as in agnès varda' s
( 1964), rozier' s film leaves us with a tragic awareness of the transience of youth .
( 1960). he envisaged making a film about the war in algeria but, this being too sensitive a subject at the time, he was steered towards a more anodyne story about a young man enjoying his last few months of freedom in the company of two pretty young girls before taking up his military service. with minimal resources, rozier encountered no end of problems whilst making the film and at the end of a gruelling twelve - month shoot he was shocked to discover that he had lost the entire soundtrack for the film .
as virtually all of the dialogue had been improvised there was no script to fall back on, and so rozier had to painstakingly reconstruct the dialogue from scratch, trying to get as near a synchronisation with the lip movements of his actors as he could. meanwhile, de beauregard had totally lost confidence in the film and sold it back to rozier, to do with it whatever he chose. two years after beginning work on the film, rozier was able to present the completed film at the cannes film festival in 1962, where it received a rapturous welcome. despite the critical acclaim that came its way ,
was not a great commercial success and rozier would have difficulty financing his subsequent films. his output as a filmmaker was modest in scale but it reaffirmed his standing as one of france' s most committed auteurs. his later films
( 1986) are all significant achievements and mark rozier out as an auteur apart .

the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans. it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
movies and tv shows are certified fresh with a steady tomatometer of 75% or higher after a set amount of reviews (80 for wide - release movies, 40 for limited - release movies, 20 for tv shows), including 5 reviews from top critics .
this arty new wave film marked the directorial debut of jacques rozier, and almost finished him commercially. a vacationing television technician (jean - claude aimini) falls in love with two teenage girls (yveline cery and stefania sabatini) in the months preceding his induction into the military. the girls plot revenge when they discover his two - timing, but one of them has already fallen in love with him. rozier did not make another film for over a decade following this one' s crashing failure. ~ robert firsching, rovi
rozier revels in the new era of rock music and club med, and his wondrous images raise the delicate rituals of adolescent courtship to a poignant comic grandeur .
aimini plays that familiar figure of' 60s cinema, the young man awaiting his call - up papers. he works in a tv studio (very droll, these scenes) where he meets two girls, best friends, whom he joins for a holiday in corsica. relationships flare and fizzle, ending with the girls on the quayside and the lad on board ship, the war in algeria beckoning. rozier' s methods were improvisational, and evidently he cast on appearance and manner rather than on acting talent. the result is a bit long - winded but très nouvelle vague, with a hidden camera tailing the characters through summery paris streets, a bunch of franco pop oddities on the soundtrack, and a quick glimpse of jean - claude brialy .

london — for over 65 years, he has been the unwavering presence alongside britain' s longest - serving monarch, the consummate consort and royal representative .
on wednesday prince philip, 96, made his 22, 219th — and final — solo public engagement, braving heavy rain to meet royal marines at buckingham palace .
the royal appeared in good spirits, waving to cheering crowds and joking with the soldiers, who have completed a 1, 664 - mile (2, 678 - kilometer) trek to raise money for charity .

you all should be locked up ,
he quipped, making the soldiers laugh .
philip announced he was stepping down from public duties in may. the royal, known for his sense of humor and gaffes, recently joked about his big retirement day, telling celebrity chef prue leith :
i' m discovering what it' s like to be on your last legs .
also known as the duke of edinburgh, he will still appear at queen elizabeth ii' s side — from time to time — as the 91 - year - old monarch soldiers on .
philip is patron, president or a member of over 780 organizations, with which he will continue to be associated — but he won' t play an active role by attending engagements. the queen supported the decision .
wednesday' s event marks a major landmark for the man born prince philip of greece and denmark in corfu on june 10, 1921, to princess alice of battenberg and prince andrew of greece. amid the upheaval of the military coup that overthrew his uncle, king constantine, in 1922, the family fled .
king george v, the queen' s grandfather, sent a royal navy cruiser to evacuate philip' s family and he was whisked to safety in a cot made from an orange box. later, he rarely saw his parents and went to school in germany and britain .
philip has had a long association with the military and had once had promising military career. he joined the royal navy as a cadet in 1939 and served during world war ii, winning mention in dispatches for service aboard the battleship hms valiant at cape matapan, on greece' s peloponnesian peninsula. he rose to the level of commander .
two years after the war ended, philip married the future queen at westminster abbey when she was 21 and he was 26. he renounced his greek title and king george vi made him the duke of edinburgh. his career came to an abrupt end with george' s death in 1952. at the queen' s coronation in 1953, philip swore to be his wife' s
liege man of life and limb .
he settled into a life supporting elizabeth in her role as queen and they had four children — charles, anne, andrew and edward .
philip has given 5, 496 speeches, written 14 books and gone on 637 solo visits overseas .
he' s championed environmental and conservation issues, and has interests in science, engineering and industry. an accomplished sportsman, he played polo regularly until 1971. he earned his raf wings in 1953, his helicopter wings in 1956 and his private pilot' s license in 1959 .

all that activity has led to overall good health. but philip has been admitted to the hospital on a number of occasions in the last few years for abdominal surgery, bladder infections and a blocked coronary artery .
many of his health issues are related to sports. he has arthritis in his right wrist and broke a bone in his ankle from playing polo. he developed a rheumatic condition of the tendon in the hand after a taking a fall in polo .
he takes the stairs rather than elevators and can still fit into the uniform he wore for his wedding. he was only seen wearing hearing aids for the first time at a palace reception in 2014 at the age of 93 .
philip, who enjoys a slightly wicked turn of phrase, has poked fun at himself and his advancing years. in a letter to the oldie magazine in 2011, he said he appreciated being named
consort of the year .
there is nothing like it for morale to be reminded that the years are passing — ever more quickly — and that bits are beginning to drop off the ancient frame ,
he wrote .
but it is nice to be remembered at all .
