Revoir Julie (1998) ***
This unpretentious little film about two young women renewing their friendship might well be the best Quebec pic of the year. It's off-beat, quirky, low-key, subtle and de-dramatized in the best Eric Rohmer tradition. Both actresses, and particularly Morgenstern, are superlative. A genuine, unexpected sleeper, exploring the theme of suppressed sexual desire in a totally original way.
