Edit (2022): this was my first major blog post, and I had no idea at the time that copy-pasting images was a bad idea. Hence all the broken image links. Also, info about how to find these movies is badly out of date. There has been a lot of Rivette action the last five years.
There is wide chasm between the importance of Jacques Rivette’s work and the amount of attention it receives in the USA. My aim here is to promote Rivette awareness and provide information and guidance for those who are looking to get into his stuff but unsure of how to proceed.
