Revans (1983)
6/10
Hi Claire, how's your knee?

Right from the opening fantasy sequence of Antonis Kafetzopoulos imitating Humphrey Bogart in "Casablanca", you can tell "Revanche" is NOT going to be an ordinary movie. It is in fact very peculiar, fresh, dreamy, aimless, idiosyncratic: definitely not for all moods (more for a late-late night one), and probably works better on the second viewing - with the use of fast-forward where necesssary. Partly it's like a Greek "Jules & Jim", but it's more than that; its occasional pretentiousness is leavened by some very funny lines. Giota Festa is a dynamo, and a feminist ahead of the curve. **1/2 out of 4.
