I feel like most romantic dramas would be improved by the addition of Heinrich.

I swear I've seen a music video or something with someone dancing with exactly the same motions as Isabelle Adjani in the subway scene. Kate Bush?

I rewatched this and Tree of Life in a single evening a few months back. Still don't think my head has fully reassembled itself.
(The incorrect '1982' in the thread title is like a hair fluttering in some indeterminate part of my peripheral vision. Make it go away!)

my favorite movie of all time

i saw a 35 mm print of it at the anthology film archives two months ago, it was one of the most singularly uncomfortable experiences of my life (mostly bc there is no air conditioning in that theater) (the movie is also a succession of discomforts before the spy stuff in the final act takes the wheel but i have seen it more than ten times now). the print was real rough at the start and then gradually cleaned itself up, the last half of it looked so gorgeous

That's a good one Milton, but I've definitely never seen that video before! Whatever I'm half-remembering (if it even exists) involves someone doing exactly the spasmodic hands-in-front-of-face motions that she does at 1:20 in this video https://vimeo.com/129275251 , and exactly the arms down at sides torso-twisting while bending forward and back like what begins at 1:35, and likewise nearly identical motions to what she does at 2:10-2:30. I wouldn't normally pick it apart like this, but I swear it's something (movie? video?) I've seen several times! It's like it's on the tip of my tongue

oh jesus, it's going to turn out to be a nine inch nails video from the 90's or something isn't it

Holy shit, this film
