I saw my first Rohmer, My Night at Maud’s, at the 1969 New York Film Festival, and wrote: “It is so good to see a movie where the characters have beliefs, and articulate them, and talk to each other (instead of at each other). It is so good, in fact, that you realize how hungry you’ve been for this sort of thing.” I’ve been in love with Rohmer ever since. — Roger Ebert
