If you loved Mi noche con Maud, try El rayo verde
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Éric Rohmer, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mi noche con Maud, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El rayo verde is
Rohmer does what he does, which is not much but somehow enough. Delphine seeks out the titular optical phenomenon while struggling to find a compatible vacation companion. It's the sort of movie that either bores you to tears or becomes your entire personality for a month.
