Werner Schroeter’s final film, Nuit de chien, is the adaptation of Juan Carlos Onetti’s eponymous novel. The filmmaker said about this Uruguayan writer: “Onetti, he is the opposite of capitalism. He is somebody who has lived with his intelligence alone.” And it’s true, the night in this crepuscular film is populated by a small troop of lonely souls. Even though each of them pursues the other, all of them are spiteful, cruel and ready to tear each other apart rather than connecting with each other. Stévenin, for example, plays a militia leader reduced to a skin of sorrow in a disastrous regime who faces Pascal Grégory, a particularly distraught physician searching for a loved woman in vain. Filmed in Portugal, using excessive artificial lighting, in French with a mostly French cast, this film displays Schroeter’s habitual theatricality, but his lyricism here has been stifled, subdued, and struggles to victoriously emerge from this slowmotion apocalypse.
