[ May 12, 2008; 9:01 pm to 11:00 pm. ] The William Faulkner of cinema, Alain Resnais through La Guerre Est Finie (”The War Is Over”) does not only a brilliant psychological study of the revolutionary but also of the resistance itself. The spirit, the anger, the disjointedness, the weariness, the inspiration, the mechanical, the loss of charm, the loss of ideology with the gain of further knowledge, the loss of innocence in more ways than virginal: how often do you find a film that can catch all this?
