La Belle Captive Rare VHS 1983 French New Wave Alain Robbe-Grillet

Arthouse cinema FFO French New Wave, Last Year At Marienbad, Alain Robbe-Grillet, BDSM

Robbe-Grillet, better known for his provocative new wave fiction (La Jalousie) and screenwriting (Last Year at Marienbad), went on to direct several philosophical-erotic thrillers. They are impossible to find, never had wide distribution to begin with, and were largely box-office failures.

This appears to be a well-made European bootleg. Clear sound and picture.

Is it actually good? Does it actually matter?
