The Captive4

Following on from last year's Time Regained comes another Marcel Proust adaptation, a sombre version of the fifth volume of Remembrance Of Things Past. Belgian writer-director Chantal Akerman relocates the book's two main characters to a contemporary, albeit strangely deserted, Paris, where the wealthy idler Simon (Stanislas Merhar) shares a labyrinthine apartment with his girlfriend Ariane (Sylvie Testud).
