Eric Rohmer's Chloe in the Afternoon doesn't need sparkly cinematic dross to discover unspoken, universal truths about relationships and love through filmmaking.

A wonderfully cool and lucid exposition of the twists and turns of its hero's thoughts. Feb 9, 2006 | Full Review…
A wonderfully cool and lucid exposition of the twists and turns of its hero's thoughts.
What makes Rohmer's films so sparkling and intelligent is the way in which he watches his characters. Nothing escapes him, and he uses the angle of a glance, the tilt of a head, the precise set of a mouth, in order to create wonderfully complex characters Oct 23, 2004 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

Just because Mr. Rohmer keeps his focus short, clear and precise, one sees deeply into the lives of his characters without the sort of pretentious distortions of most movies that deal in metapsors. May 20, 2003 | Rating: 4.5/5

A fitting close to the series.
I suppose the ultimate point is whether or not Frédéric gives in, but the ride itself is quite fascinating. Mar 24, 2007 | Rating: 3.4/4 | Full Review…

At least as moral quandaries go, Love has one worth pondering. And if you feel otherwise, you can at least groove on the 1970s fashions. Apr 1, 2003 | Rating: 2/5
