King of Hearts [VHS]

Rated: Unrated
Staring: Alan Bates , Geneviève Bujold , Pierre Brasseur , Jean-Claude Brialy , Adolfo Celi
Director: Philippe de Broca
This film was a touchstone of the late 1960s, when it was seen as an antiwar allegory for a world in which madness seemed to reign. Of course, that would probably be true whenever this movie was shown, wouldn't it? Directed by Philippe de Broca and set during World War I, King of Hearts stars Alan Bates as a Scottish soldier separated from his unit in France. He wanders into a small French village that has been abandoned by its residents in the face of oncoming combat. Instead, the town is populated by the residents of a nearby insane asylum, whose keepers have fled--a fact that escapes the innocent soldier, who assumes these are the regular folks. A film that celebrates the innocence and wisdom of the insane, even as it questions who the real madmen are. --Marshall Fine

Donkey Skin [VHS]

Donkey Skin [VHS]

Rated: NR (Not Rated)
Staring: Georges Adet , Annick Berger , Romain Bouteille , Louise Chevalier , Sylvain Corthay
Donkey Skin reunites Catherine Deneuve with Jacques Demy and Michel Legrand, yet it's quite unlike The Umbrellas of Cherbourg or The Young Girls of Rochefort. Those 1960s musicals were set in some semblance of the modern world, but Donkey Skin, based on a fable by Charles Perrault, takes place in a fantastical fairyland, located somewhere between The Wizard of Oz and La Belle et la Bête. Jean Marais, Jean Cocteau’s Beast, is even the king of the kingdom. Alas, he's just lost his queen (Deneuve), whose dying wish is that he marry a woman more beautiful than she. Deranged by loss, he decides on his daughter (Deneuve again). She's horrified--her fairy godmother (Delphine Seyrig), as well, so she devises a plan for the princess to flee, hidden by a donkey skin. Strange by any standards, Donkey Skin is one of the more magical musicals to emerge from the 1970s. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Diary of a Seducer [VHS]

Diary of a Seducer [VHS]

Rated: NR (Not Rated)
Staring: Mathieu Amalric , Laurent Charoy , Bénédicte Darblay , Klaus Gerke , Philippe Giangreco
A man wearing a neck brace and inflicted with amnesia groggily wanders the streets of Paris in search of some clue, some random sighting, that might jog a recollection or two and tell him who he is and how he got there. That's the terrific opening scene of Daniele Dubroux's Diary of a Seducer, and from there the film is one big, wacky flashback zigzagging its way to the present-day wanderings of our unfortunate amnesiac. The solution involves a half-hearted student, Claire (Chiara Mastroianni), who finds and returns a copy of Kierkegaard's book Diary of a Seducer--the story of a boy's methodical plan to sleep with an innocent young woman--to its creepy owner, Gregory (Melvil Poupaud). Gregory insists that Claire read the tome, which she does and magically falls for him, becoming immersed in his reclusive world of paranoid grandmothers, corpses kept in freezers, and a friend (the iconic Jean-Pierre Leaud) who holds a gun to his head at dinner. Written and directed by Dubroux, who plays Claire's mother, the film's weird phenomena are more dreamy than literal, part of a cracked logic that grows into a narrative maze. Dubroux can make things unnecessarily muddy at times, ...
