I can't emotionally connect with most old French movies.
When I was young, I admired Robert Bresson, I thought his detached and expressionless style was something revolutionary. But now I find it just boring and trite.
Paul loves Phillippe, but he doesn't show it. People speak of deep emotions as if they were ordering coffee at the bakery.
The film has an excessive decency for a 1971 work. Although it is obvious that Phillipe and Paul have a loving and sexual relationship, there is no show of affection between them.
Even the relationship between Paul and Marie-Laure, shown more graphically on screen, is cold and passionless.
The movie didn't add much to me.

One of the best gay short films I've ever seen.
A very realistic and contemporary approach to relationships between men.
It has a stunning look, a sexy and emotional soundtrack, and a narrative well divided between two moments: sex, and the emotional crisis after a threesome.
Adult, captivating and uncompromising.

This is a genuinely independent film, with a delicate approach to a personal drama.
Rafael is a young cuban boy who goes to New York to look for his sister, who was taken there as a teenager to be a prostitute.
He is an talented boxer and uses his skills when he descends into the underworld of prostitution to look for his sister. He gives big beating to pimps that get in his way.
This creates an interesting contrast, because, despite being a strong and very masculine man, he has transgender desires, and dresses up as a woman from time to time.
The film tells the various sides of the story realistically. Worth it.
