About Céline and Julie Go Boating (1974) Presented by: Not By Lynch
Jacques Rivette’s Céline and Julie Go Boating begins as a whimsical story of friendship between librarian Julie and magician Céline, who embark on a game of swapped identities and improvised performance. Soon they discover a strange house where a gothic melodrama repeats endlessly. By consuming enchanted sweets, they can enter the story, watch it unfold and eventually take control.
Critics have long noted affinities between Rivette’s film and David Lynch. Like Mulholland Drive, Céline and Julie imagines stories as spaces that can be stepped into and rewritten, with identities that shift like masks. Rivette’s tone is lighter than Lynch’s but equally fascinated by the magic of narrative and the porous edges of reality.
With an accompanying essay and introduction by critic, Esme Holden.
