My ★★★★ review of The Young Lovers on #letterboxd: boxd.it/9gW2gd

boxd.itA ★★★★ review of The Young Lovers (2021)Tardieu demonstrates a great feeling for sensibility and longing… this is what French cinema does best. Dissecting characters and delivering tender heartfelt stories on the big screen. Whoever has claimed French films are always too talkative? Even when they are, it rarely bothered me. Usually it’s well balanced. In general, romance is more served with depth compared to Hollywood ‘drama/comedy’. But to each their own. Ardant (classy, sexy) and Poupaud (classy, sexy) don’t stay on surface and they both are class acts. You might wish it could happen to you. In a way. “Responding to the fear of death with

This image features a striking sculpture that captures a dramatic moment. At the top, a muscular figure, likely representing a powerful deity or force, looms with an imposing presence. His robust stance and intense posture suggest an act of strength or defiance, perhaps conveying themes of struggle or triumph. Below him, another figure reclines gracefully in a more serene pose. This contrast creates a rich narrative tension between strength and vulnerability. The figure appears to be cradling a smaller form, enhancing the sense of protection or nurturing amidst turmoil. The textures of the sculptures add to the depth of the piece, showcasing intricate details that evoke a sense of realism despite the stylized representations. The monochromatic palette invests the image with a timeless quality, allowing viewers to focus on the emotional weight and dynamics of the scene without the distraction of color. Overall, the interplay of the figures could suggest a story of conflict, love, or coexistence, inviting contemplation on the duality of human experience. The viewer might reflect on the balance between power and tenderness, evoking a rich tapestry of interpretations based on individual perceptions and emotions.

Paris – Medici Fountain – Acis And Galatea
(Lovers)

One of my favorite places in Paris… I came to read near the basin...

"The Medici Fountain was originally created in the seventeenth century in the Luxembourg gardens for Maria de’ Medici, Queen of France. The romantic fountain is decorated with allegorical statues."

The image showcases a beautifully carved marble sculpture of Acis and Galatea, set against a dark backdrop that amplifies its intricate details. At the center, two figures embrace in an intimate pose, their bodies skillfully rendered to evoke a sense of movement and tenderness. The texture of the marble highlights the play of light and shadow, enhancing the emotional connection between the figures. The fountain setting adds a serene ambiance, suggesting a moment frozen in time. Water trickles gently around the sculpture, emphasizing a theme of life and continuity. The surrounding architecture, though faint, hints at grandeur and history, lending a timeless quality to the scene. Interpretively, this sculpture could symbolize love, desire, or the beauty of human connection. The contrast between the softness of the figures and the hardness of the marble might also speak to the enduring nature of love amid the transient aspects of life. Overall, the image invites viewers to reflect on the nuances of passion and permanence.
