this be clearly a french film . it be about young group of idealist or revolutionary or anarchistic people . it move very slowly . long take . long closeup . a minute or more devote to an attempt to light a pipe full of hash or opium . a long take on how a group overturn a car and burn it . it be a black and white film . the subtitle be white and so about a third of the time they be unreadable . ( why do they do this . ) i walk out after about an hour and three quarter when it become clear that this picture be go nowhere and slow . i be not the first to walk out . it be the first time i walk out of a picture in my long lifetime . ( well and maybe the second . ) .
