Trying to formulate an impartial assessment of this movie proves surprisingly difficult. The reason for that lies in the fact that the central performer, Corinne Marchand, embodies a character who isn’t particularly endearing. She portrays someone preoccupied with the possibility of having cancer and prone to hypochondria. Seeking reassurance, she turns to a spiritualist, and we then observe her throughout an afternoon as she anticipates medical test outcomes. The film largely takes on the feel of a personal video log, which means there are stretches where things aren't all that captivating. As with most everyday occurrences, not a great deal happens. She encounters José, played by José Luis de Vilallonga—a detached partner accustomed to her anxieties—and a soldier named Antoine (Antoine Bourseiller), who is captivated by her but also facing assignment in Algeria, which is about to become independent. I appreciated the photographic style; it possesses a certain closeness. The music composed by Michel Legrand – who also appears playing piano – contributes to the film’s depth, yet overall this feels like an unusual and detached study from Agnès Varda. If possible, experience it in a cinema because viewing it on a smaller screen can make it harder to maintain focus.
