Oh, I know what you mean about the art-house films. I've just given up on anything labeled "indie" unless the plot synopsis is just mindbogglingly intriguing. (Dogma 95, oh Jesus YES, that stuff is awful. I saw a play based on Festen once, and I wanted to just close my eyes and scream by the end.) I completely understand appreciating the artistry and technique but not actually finding something entertaining, and if it's not your field, then there's no point in putting in the time to appreciate it if you're not actually getting any entertainment value of it.
I've never heard of Breathless, but I just looked up the Wikipedia article, and D: D: D:.
Or, as it sometimes seems, wishing there were more of a plot.
Heh. You would definitely not like Mrs. Dalloway, then. Seriously, the only thing that actually happens in the real world/present time is that she prepares for a party she's giving that night, talks with an old friend who's come to town, and gives the party. :)
