Prevista en origen como la tercera parte de la tetralogía de películas que exploran la mujer y la mitología, "Noroît" propone un modo inverosímil de entender las películas de piratas, al considerar estos temas. Geraldine Chaplin interpreta a una mujer resuelta a vengar la muerte de su hermano a manos de una banda de espadachinas capitaneada por la veterana actriz de la Nouvelle Vague Bernadette Lafont. Basada en el drama de Cyril Tourneur "The Revenger’s Tragedy", "Viento del Noroeste" explora además los límites de la reflexividad en la asombrosa secuencia culmen de la película. La producción de la película resultó tan agotadora que Rivette aplazó el proyecto durante más de veinte años.

Muy cerca de la tradición de los cuentos infantiles, la película narra las relaciones entre la bibliotecaria Julie y Céline, y cómo ésta introduce a la primera en una historia, entre la realidad y la fantasía, que se desarrolla en una gran mansión aislada donde vive un viudo, su hija de 8 años y dos mujeres.
Atticus
Straub-Huillet’s first color film, adapts a lesser-known Corneille tragedy from 1664, which in turn was based on an episode of imperial court intrigue chronicled in Tacitus’s Histories. The costuming is classical, and the toga-clad, nonprofessional cast performs the drama’s original French text amid the ruins of Rome’s Palatine Hill while the noise of contemporary urban life hums in the background. Their lines are executed with a terrific flatness and frequently through heavy accents; the language in Othon becomes not merely an expression but a thing itself, an element whose plainness here alerts us to qualities of the work that might otherwise be subordinated.
