Rendez-vous

Rendez-vous is a 1985 French film. André Téchiné directs. It won Best Director at Cannes. It stars Juliette Binoche, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Lambert Wilson, Wadeck Stanczak (in one of his first films), Dominique Lavanant, and Anne Wiazemsky (whose 1st film was Bresson's Au Hasard Balthazar). Imdb describes it as "A provocative erotic drama, stylishly rendered" and a "compelling investigation into the intersection of sexual and artistic passion". There is full female nudity, just fyi. Implied male nudity, but everything's not on full display.

I watched it free online at Hulu with commercials. trailer:



Rotten Tomatoes doesn't have enough critic reviews for a score yet, but the audience score is 58%. Reviews are not easy to find, or weren't for me.

  1. I've never heard of it. I have tried to watch Hulu, but my computer is so old and internet are so slow, the buffering takes longer than the actual show.

    1. My old computer finally had a permanent breakdown, and we got a new one. It's a low-end machine, but I don't get the buffering problem anymore. I remember how frustrating it was, though, just to watch short clips, much less movies.
