Green Ray's wonderful. Love the story about how they had to wait a whole year to get the titular image on film because it didn't happen the year they were actually filming.

Rohmer series running on MUBI right now. Did anyone read the bio? Reviews made it seem interesting.

I've read a biography, not sure if there's more than one? His life isn't really that interesting tbh!

For either. HBO Max has a few though.

MUBI US often doesnât have a lot of stuff you guys have and for the other we get some kind of subset, BFI Player Classics.

Mark is in the UK though. He didn't move thar far afaik!
James Redd - You guys get the Criterion channel though and I bet Mubi US has lots of great stuff we don't get.

Criterion Rohmer selection okay at the moment. MUBI US has an interesting Maurice Pialat series going on right now.

If you use a VPN, get a new email address and take out a trial using a debit card, you can use it for a fortnight until it works out your card is not in the US.

(Youth and age make one vulnerable (from naivete or nostalgia). This is incurred as life experience and observed with pathos held in reserve and without intrusion or judgment, not sardonically or cruelly and if familiar not overly so but with fondness and keenness for experience.)

I don't have the services mentioned, but I have these films on DVD.
FWIW I quite like these seasonal tales and I think I enjoy Summer best.

I have them on dvd too

I don't subscribe, but I noticed that Metrograph's streaming service ($5/month or $50/year) has three Rohmer films: "The Aviator's Wife," "Boyfriends and Girlfriends," and "Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle." It sounds like you can cancel your membership anytime, so you could just watch all their streaming stuff for one month for $5. Pretty interesting selection: https://metrograph.com/at-home/

"Four Adventures of Reinette and Mirabelle." is my fave Rohmer. Indeed, one of my fave films by anybody.

Tales of the Four Seasons streaming on Criterion Channel.

If my favourite Rohmer isn't La Collectioneuse, it's one of the medieval films. The appeal of the rest escapes me, it's pleasant at best.

Could never get into the costumed ones at all (except maybe Triple Agent). They seemed to miss the point of what made his films great - eg the minute dissection of every fray micro-dramas

The Lady and the Duke has more tension than his other films.

Love the bit in "Le Rayon Vert" where Delphine walks by a group of people discussing Jules Verne and decides to eavesdrop on them - because she heard the word "green" mentioned, I assume. It's absolutely vital to the film but it's done in such a casual way, the conversation is so natural, the people are plainly not actors. Then having the one old guy there get up and mansplain the physics of the green ray is just perfect.
