The 14th edition of the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s Rendez-Vous With French Cinema series kicked off this week. Stephen Holden at the Times has a fairly thorough essay on the series’s 18 films; seen above is Séraphine, which screens tonight and Sunday. Directed by Martin Provost, the biopic concerns Séraphine de Senlis, a WWI-era French painter toiled as a housekeeper until her work was discovered and championed by her boss, German art collector Wilhelm Uhde. The movie stars Yolande Moreau, "an actress for whom there is no American equivalent," according to Holden.

Go see Leave Her to Heaven—it's a restored print and Gene Tierney is amazing in it.
I'm seeing two Rendez-Vous films this weekend: Girl from Monaco and The Joy of Singing.
Watchmen will be a huge let down if you've read the graphic novel.
what? the movie was exactly like the comic.
Whoa, Jackie Earle Haley is in Watchmen? I may just go, then. He was great in Breaking Away, but then that whole movie was great. Sort of makes sense, I guess. Rorschach is supposed to go nuts after being taunted about his size, just like Moocher did in the earlier movie. "Don't forget to punch the clock, shorty." Crash.
