L'eclisse
gets better with each viewing. actions are meaningless. Monica Vitti is directionless and emotionally absent, devoid of accountability. the look of content and joy on Alain Delon's face after he finally feels he's on firm ground with Vitti and expects to see her that night is devastating. When she says "I wish I didn't love you, or that I loved you more" is just stupid enough to be real. a masterpiece.
