Customer Reviews:
a lazy movie.......2007-04-08
'Le répos du guerrier' (= French for 'the rest of the warrior') is very much characterized by its mood. A slow, laid-back, not to say inert mood. Getting into it is an absolute condition to appreciate this movie - otherwise watching will be very boring.
However, I detected one scene that may unite appreciators and non-appreciators. Its jazz-tune, somewhere halfway, surely makes a good watch.
'Le répos du guerrier' has an unusual thin story, even for Bardot-standards. This may be inspired by the Italian Fellini/Antonioni-movies that were very fashionable in 1962. If 'répos' provides us with any theme, it's about the battle of the sexes. Brigitte comes out victorious: a foregone conclusion, given the nitwit-character of her male counterpart.
Don't get the DVD advertised.......2005-10-09
I noted several reviews about dubbing and how the colors were "yellow and washed out". The film was shown in French with English subtitles on TV5, the international French station, with fairly good color. Look for another edition.
(I haven't completed the movie as I write, my rating of 3 is simply because it is impossible to post this comment with out some rating)
Well made and acted but too slow.......2002-08-10
I saw a clear version of this movie under its French title Le Repos Du Guerrier. The movie had English subtitles.
Bardot looks absolutely beautiful throughout this entire movie. Her acting is also incredibly good. She expresses a wide range of emotions (love, dispair, heartbreak, frustration, anger) very convincingly.
By accident Bardot saves the life of a man (Robert Hossein) who tries to commit suicide. She befriends this pathetic creature and soon falls in love with him. They become lovers as Bardot breaks off her engagement to another man. Her new lover is both odd and mysterious. He loves Bardot but doesn't want to give himself to her completely.
When Bardot finally leaves him, he becomes a lost soul. He can't live without her. He finds Bardot and asks her to marry him. She embraces him warmly.
I believe this movie was well made and appeals to a certain audience but it was simply too slow and soap-opera like for my taste.
A jaundiced version?.......2002-07-18
THIS is an extraordinary film..the entire picture looks jaundiced that it might perhaps be better off described as black&yellow rather than colour. That aside this is the dubbed version, something I never really liked in a film, the stars' lips were obviously out of sync with the dialogue and the plot incredibly shallow and bland ( though I suspect it was intended to convey some profound message...but what?). Bardot saves a man's life and falls for this sad character...well love is truly blind here and in the process dumps her fiancee and starts avoiding her mother. Finally if I was not a Bardot fan I would not have sat through this....my eyes were sore afterwards.
Decent.......2001-11-15
The beauty of Bardot is horribly marred by the poor picture quality of this film. The color is so screwed that the film appears to be in yellow.
No special features are offered on this DVD. It contains english dubbing which I think is fine because I prefer to watch dubbed foreign films anyway.
Since this is the only version of the film on DVD, I settled for what I could get.
