Audience Member From an artistic standpoint, this feels like a failure. Obviously, Debord didn't try too much and maybe that's the point he wanted to make. In any case, reading aloud a text more akin to the medium of book than to cinema and complementing it with very loosely connected pictures and extracts from other films is far from captivating and, ultimately, unjust to the actual material. Ideologically, I agreed with some of his points, disagreed with others - still, the "film" remains food for thought. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant, scathing, and lyrical commentary by Guy Debord regarding his opinions and experiences in the Situationist International and the 1968 Paris revolt, 10 years after. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member hmmm... ein harter brocken. debord nimmt keinerlei ruecksichten und theoretisiert gnadenlos. da er aber so ein kluger kopf war und ausserdem ueber nicht wenig humor verfuegte, ist sein letzter film ein durchaus lohnenswerter trip. ueberdies ist mir debord nicht zuletzt deswegen sympathisch, weil er auch der meinung war, dass godard ein ueberschaetzter schwaetzer und unbegabter regisseur ist ;) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Toujours d'actualité... Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member The very best -- and most melancholy and most confrontational -- of Debord's films. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member au spectateur, je n'epargnerai rien... film culte sur la decadence du capitalisme orchestree par une societe du spectacle qui a su "donner l'illusion aux pauvres qu'ils pouvaient faire parti de l'elite" Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
