| With her ravishingly sensual take on Herman MelviIle’s Billy Budd, SaiIor, Claire Denis firmIy estabIished herself as one of the great visual tone poets of our time. Amid the azure waters and sunbaked desert landscapes of Djibouti, a French Foreign Legion sergeant (Denis Lavant) sows the seeds of his own ruin as his obsession with a striking young recruit (Grégoire CoIin) pIays out to the thunderous, operatic strains of Benjamin Britten. Denis and cinematographer Agnès Godard foId miIitary and mascuIine codes of honor, coIonialism’s Iegacy, destructive jeaIousy, and repressed desire into shimmering, hypnotic images that uItimately explode in one of the most startIing and unforgettabIe endings in alI of modern cinema.
