La Dolce Vita 1960
This story makes me feel nothing but distaste for the characters. Especially the main character. Minus half a star for the scene at the restaurant.

It subverted my expectations. No matter how bad and absurd it was it just kept getting deeper. No matter how wild it was, I couldn’t stop watching with my jaw on the floor. Minus half a star for the food waste that occurred.

Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles 1975
Negative space is essential for pacing. Without pauses and breaks an audience is overwhelmed, as if they’ve been fed frosting made with too much sugar. But frosting without sweetness is equally gross (yuck milk taste). In that same vein, this film (with too much negative space) is bland and unengaging. Buried in this negative space, the story and ending was barely interesting. I’ve taken away a half star for the flashing lights that kept inexplicably coming through the dining room window.
