If you loved Las señoritas de Rochefort, try Lola
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 Jacques Demy, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Las señoritas de Rochefort, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Lola is
The director turns post-war ennui into something resembling a pastel daydream. A drifting man reconnects with the cabaret-dancing mother of his child, and old sparks stir. One suspects the film would have aged better in black and white.
