La belle captive AKA The Beautiful Prisoner (1983) - Alain Robbe-Grillet

 

 Cathal Tohill and Peter Tombs wrote: Robbe-Grillet turned once again to painting and literature for inspiration in his next film. In 1976 he had written a ‘picto-novel’, La Belle Captive, which reprinted some of Magrittes’s paintings including La Belle Captive itself. His 1983 film of the same name used paintings by both Magritte and Edouard Manet as a launching pad, each painting a ‘generation cell’ for the film’s ideas and narrative. Magritte’s Belle Captive is a great painting – formal, poetic, mysterious, it hints at all sorts of possibilities. The drawn curtains open onto a beach and sky. In the stony foreground there is an easel and a painting that visually links the world behind the curtain with the vista in the distance. It’s an audacious, inspiring work that’s a self-conscious reflection on the process of painting, but is also eerie and enigmatic, exuding a strange beauty.

L'éden et après AKA Eden and After (1970) - Alain Robbe-Grillet

 

 Quote: A group of students go to the Eden club where they play bizarre and cruel games including fake Russian Roulette, strange rituals, rape, blood-drinking and poison, until a mysterious stranger appears and ups the ante. After a bloody magic trick, he provides an African drug to a girl who sees a montage of fearful images and then slowly appears to live them, wandering into a strange fluid factory and into a postcard of Tunisia, where murders, S&M sex, dancing and a nonsensical plot of kidnapping and torture in order to locate a painting take place. The film is an experience, a reality created by illusions, hallucinations and drugs, with bizarre visuals and details emerging little by little as some images develop into scenes, albeit incoherent ones.

College Dormitory aka Dortoir des grandes (1984) - Pierre Unia

IMDb Review:

If this was a typical French dormitory, I would have gone to school in France. I swear I would have. I would still, at the age of 41, be going to school in France. Perhaps sweeping the dormitory floors, still trying to pass freshman algebra while I dispense wisdom to the bubbly French coed perched on my knee.

College Dormitory is hot stuff, especially for the time it was made. The plot is a bit hard to follow in the English version, but who is following the plot? Not me. It is basically about some girls, in a college dorm. That's enough, you don't need to know any more, except that they are frequently naked and making out with each other.
