Anna, a French actress studying in New York, crosses paths with a successful stock-broker, Mark, standing before a Vermeer portrait at the Metropolitan. They engage in a peculiar romance of missed meanings and connections, as both are wrapped up in their blindered worlds.
If you thought De Palma and Rivette would never mix well, you need to see this. Deliciously playful about art and money, Jon Jost’s film oozes with ’80s charm as its nonchalant protagonists try to fall in love. Enjoy this seminal American indie in a gorgeous, brand-new restoration.
