• _High Life_: first impressions

    I have to watch it again to see how it holds up to repeated viewing, but
    _High Life_ is unquestionable vintage Claire Denis -- and her best film
    since _L'Intrus_. The script is philosophical and humane, the images
    brutal but warm, and it even has a somewhat happy ending! The nihilism
    in _The Bastard_ is far behind her now, and the film is sort of a prayer,
    about life and death, fertility and decay, ascerticism and joy. It is
    just a brilliant film.
