39 reviews‘Christine Smallwood creates both a portrait of Akerman and her films – the most illuminating I’ve read – and a portrait of herself.’ Joanna Hogg
‘Smallwood’s La Captive is a delightful, engrossing book. Her study of Chantal Akerman’s film is profound, entwining Akerman’s and Proust’s resonant themes: mothers and daughters and sons, love and loss, passion and passivity, freedom, obsession, and time. A beautiful, masterful work that miraculously marries art to life, life to art.’ Lynne Tillman
About the film
In Chantal Akerman’s contemporary adaptation of The Prisoner, the fifth volume of Proust’s In Search of Lost Time, a wealthy young man lives with his girlfriend in his opulent Paris apartment. As obsession begets deceit inside the claustrophobic cage they call love, it becomes ever more difficult to distinguish the captive from the captor.
