Je tu il elle illustrates why the enthusiastic fandom and hushed reverence it receives it feels earned.

Battleship Pretension

After returning to Europe and making Le 15/8, Akerman had a greater sense of herself and what she wanted to accomplish with film, which is on full display in Je tu il elle.

From the Front Row

A deeply personal evocation of queer humanity, grappling with both painful and banal experiences that strip it of its exoticism and examines the life of a queer woman with a keen emotional acuity.

House Next Door

Akerman must have had enormous confidence in herself to be so bold both aesthetically and sexually so early in her career.

Nothing for me here, really. Seemed like a film student project. Painfully slow in its pacing. Is this, what you call...da boredom? AKA 'ennui'? The first 20+ min. is just the main character moving her furniture around until she's laying on a mattress of the floor. Only dialogue really is this long bit of a guy driving and truck and talking about his kid and the women he has casual sex with. The final scene may well have the least convincing semblance of sex I've ever seen? Nothing erotic about it. Was that the point? Seriously, I've seen porn more convincing. Was this some comment on the French sub-bourgeosie? You know how they love to go on about the bourgeosie in their art. 2 stars I suppose.

Artist (Chantal Akerman) explores her needs and state of being. That goes through other persons. Remarkably slow film with awkward moments and an extraordinary lovemaking. With patience and attention, there is plenty to enjoy. A unique document.

Unforgivably long scenes. You can pretend that eating sugar out of a bag is killing the game…but it’s not!

I feel so connected when I watch an Akerman film, it's like all words I can use to describe this feeling would just undersell it. She's simply just the greatest.

Artsy, but it does have some poignancy to show the loneliness of finding oneself. Saw it on TCM.
