You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet

R.I.P. Alain Resnais
by John Demetry

With his last three movies released in the US, Alain Resnais continued to push himself and the medium forward--achieving this era's peak cinematographic visions with d.p. Eric Gautier: the Joycean AIDS-era lament of PRIVATE FEARS IN PUBLIC PLACES; the cinemascope surrealism--where desires meet--of WILD GRASS; the emotional extravaganza of YOU AIN'T SEEN NOTHIN' YET. Apparently there's more to come. RIP Alain Resnais. One of the last masters.
