Le Revelateur (Philippe Garrel, 1968)

9/10
A 1968 film coming in at just over an hour featuring three actors (a mother, a father, a son), no dialogue or any soundtrack whatsoever, high-contrast black-and-white photography, and was apparently filmed with a majority of the cast and crew under the influence of LSD. Luckily I have a high tolerance for drug-induced 60's pretentiousness, so I found it quite fascinating in its own way. Can't way to see some of director Philippe Garrel's other wackiness from the same era, particularly La Cicatrice Intérieure starring Garrel's muse and partner, Nico.
