R.I.P. Bernadette Lafont
Eulogy:
http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/01/arts/bernadette-lafont-actress-in-new-wave-films-dies-at-74.html?_r=0
Never Let Me Go (2010)
The story of three friends who are tragically born to lead short lives, and the love triangle that forms between them in their brief time together.
Exquisitely directed and played sci-fi melodrama with a bleak atmosphere, but falls short explaining the dystopian world it plays in.
Maltin ***: "Somber but moving adaptation by Alex Garland of Kazuo Ishiguro's highly acclaimed novel turns on its leading actors' deeply felt performances and a haunting music score by Rachel Portman."
