ABOUT THE FILM DESTROY, SHE SAID (DÉTRUIRE DIT-ELLE) Following an attempt by Joseph Losey to shoot her script, Marguerite Duras brought it to the screen herself and the writer-director’s gift for dialogue was rarely put to better use. Recuperating from a miscarriage, Catherine Sellers checks in to a remote French resort – or perhaps an asylum – where fellow residents Henri Garcin, Nicole Hiss and Michael Lonsdale (in his first of several Duras films) draw her into their company with strangely insinuating conversations. A brooding ennui hangs over the grounds’ tennis courts and chaise lounges in this spare B&W drama, whose surprising finish is equally ominous. FORMAT: 35mm DISTRIBUTOR: Editions Benoit Jacob
