Review of L'Atalante (1934) by Timothy M — 05 Dec 2010
It's probably a cliche to say "What a shame it is Vigo never directed another film," but there you have it. Marvelous, simple, little film. The visuals are marvelous, as is the acting. What a wonderful creation Jules is, and Michel Simon plays it to the hilt - memorably so.
It's a corking little gem that should really be more well known. I honestly hadn't heard of it until just a few months ago. But then I'm just ignorant.
