To some extent, with The Salt of Tears (Le Sel des larmes) French post-New Wave director Philippe Garrel continues in the familiar vein of his last three films, the intimate dramas Jealousy, In the Shadow of Women and Lover for a Day. It's shot in black-and-white, it looks at relationship issues surrounding fathers and lovers, and much of the same below-the-line talent has collaborated on this effort as well, from production designer Manu de Chauvigny to composer Jean-Louis Aubert. But there’s an element of light comedy — rather than the more familiar irony — that feels fresh and invigorating, even ...

It's been two years on the dot since Maurice Garrel and his grandson Louis were last paired on screen in the criminally misunderstood Un été brûlant, an elaborate treatise on authenticity and imitation, as well as on experience and its reluctance to be imparted. In the film's final scene, Philippe Garrel bestows a generous gift on the medium as such when Maurice's ghost visits the dying youth in a hospital room to tell stories about his involvement in the Resistance and miraculous survival on the battlefield.
