92) Une Femme Est Une Femme - Godard's "musical," I use that term lightly because Godard, as is to be expected, plays with every convention, every notion of a musical. If you are into Godard, it is definitely worth a watch. In some ways though, if you have seen one of his "light" films you have seen them all. Band of Outsiders, Breathless, and A Woman is a Woman (the ones I've seen) all have a similar taste to them, which is both an asset and a fault. I guess it makes sense that Godard was an advocate of the auteur theory. It's a nice film with some wonderful moments.
93) The Way We Laughed - The first 30 minutes or so of this film were amazing. I was really getting into it, and I love another film of Amelio's called Stolen Children. But it stalled. I loved the introduction of the characters, but I felt like in some sense the whole film was introduction. The conflict never opened up, the actors never fully inhabited the characters, they were always on their way. I kept waiting for it to start, and it never did. I can't recommend this film really unless you are what we call a cinephile.

94) Time Indefinite - The coveted 10.0, I updated my ymdb and placed this film in the #2 spot. The best way to describe this movie is that it is more full of life than any film I've ever seen. It just keeps building, like a life, until it is so full and dense and thoughtful and heartwarming. You get to share love, which is just not something I can say for that many films. Again, I always feel silly discussing a film that has affected me this much. It's such a lovely film. I can never understand why stuff like this doesn't get talked about more.
