Les Visiteurs Du Soir

A white castle in a rocky landscape,  two riders on a ridge against the summer sky,  Arletty dressed as a boy, the resurrection of a dancing bear, "demons et merveilles".... and all in the first few minutes.

I love this movie.

A Snatch Of Dialogue

"Hey, listen to what Schubert said: 'I don't know any happy music; do you?'"

"He hadn't heard The Birdie Song, had he!"

"The Birdie Song isn't happy; it's desperate."
