About Cézanne: Conversation with Joachim Gasquet
A landmark work of symbolistic imagery. The words that the filmmakers speak offscreen are imaginary conversation with Cézanne quoted from a critique by Joachim Gasquet. An exchange of memories spanning over 250 years interweaves everything from the philosophy of Empedocles to excerpts from the film Madame Bovary, to extant paintings by Cézanne, to the buildings of the artists’ village at Mont Sainte-Victoire. —ntticc.or.jp
Directed by Danièle Huillet, Jean-Marie Straub, Cézanne: Conversation with Joachim Gasquet leans on a strong ensemble — Danièle Huillet, Jean-Marie Straub — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1990.
