The Dreamers (2003)
7/10
Bertolucci's personal look at the 1960 decade and Cinema itself
20 December 2010
An interesting piece of work from the Italian director, approaching the atmosphere in a 1968 France, during the movement and student protests that influenced that same year.

Here, the experienced cinematographer not only summarizes many movies that marked the birth of modern cinema, as well as maneuvers a contrast between the tensions of that decade and the journey of intimate discovery by three young persons, stirred by the events of their time.

Highlights for the leading trio, that skilfully dominate the 'spicy' moments, but specially Eva Green, embodying a dissimilar 'femme fatale'.

An outstanding movie with wide cinematographic influences and references, that are in a certain way, a bit of what Bernardo Bertolucci is as a film-maker.
