Virgin Stripped Bare By Her Bachelors (Hong Sang-soo, 2000)
Not only a brilliant dissection of modern courting rituals and dating but also of narrative. Not to mention some of the most stunning black & white cinematography of the naughts.
Straub apologised for not being able to attend – and added, “Besides, I couldn’t have a good time at a festival where there are so many public and private police looking for a terrorist – the terrorist is me, and I tell you, paraphrasing Franco Fortini: as long as there’s American imperialist capitalism, there won’t be enough terrorists in the world.”
