Suzanne’s Career

1963·Drama·54m
7.0
In the second of Rohmer's moral tales, he examines the relationship between two friends and a girl who at first appears easily exploited. It is a complex tale of feelings and misconceptions, acted out within the head of the main character, as part of Rohmer's attempt to more easily simulate the mindscape quality of literature within a film.

Was not a huge fan of this moral tale out of the four I've watched this is the weakest none of the characters really grab me the cinematography isn't as good as a Collectionhouse and the story isn't as fast paced as the bakery one.

A indecisão do protagonista me fez lembrar a mim mesmo e isso me não é um bom sinal

Suzanne’s Career
"Innocent or guilty, naive or cunning, what did it matter."
Love becomes a competition – one of ego, power and pity – straying away from the essence of it; modern relationships have taken on a juvenile approach. Emptiness is what fills the bustling parties, and sit-in cafes of this story – preoccupied with performing the play of 'love' we are able to breathe in the hollow cigarettes of arenas of selfishness and guilt.

No one here is exactly in the right, because everyone contradicts their own feelings and authenticity for a chance to experience a minor insecurity; or manipulative 'love'. Suzanne's Career quielty exposes the battlegrounds of plastic intimacy, overrun and corrupt by immediate pleasure: it's all an attempt to feel something – but it only lands one farther from the core heat of devotion.
