As a crier myself, I wholeheartedly agree. If you were, you would be (as in bawling now).
Agree with both you and
!@#$%! about La Collectionneuse, too. I don't know if I prefer Rohmer to Truffaut or Godard at their best, but i think he made a better transition out of the sixties than either of them - especially Godard.
Speaking of New Wave, I watched Jean Eustache's The Mother and the Whore again thisr week. Almost 4 hours long and bordering on ridiculous but still one of my favourite films ever. Especially suited to anyone who's ever tried to impress a girl with a record - as this clip demonstrates:
