the dreamers
Category: Drama (ADULT Content)
Duration: 2 hrs. 10 min.
Recommended by Dickson. Directed by Bernardo Bertolucci; written by Gilbert Adair, inspired by his novel "The Holy Innocents".An American college student, Matthew (Pitt), pursuing his education abroad in Paris in 1968 becomes friends with a French brother, Guillaume (Garrel), and sister, Danielle (Green), through a shared love of the cinema, while the May, 1968 Paris student riots (which eventually shut down most of the French government) are happening in the background.
It's political uprising, the glory of French cinema, and misconstrued sexual movie. some arty farty film. some might see it as porn. A whirl of sensuality, youth and rebellion set in Paris during the riots of 1968, ablaze with poetry and danger, and suffused with an odd kind of intellectual kitsch. seriously, you need to tweet your head before you can get the story. watch it if you are really into art. qoute "irreversible" otherwise you might just watch porn.
