A star rating of 2 out of 5.

David Parkinson

One Moment, Jirí Menzel's affectionate montage tribute to Czech actor Rudolf Hrusinsky, is the pick of this largely self-indulgent collection of musings on memory, fate and time. Bernardo Bertolucci's Histoire d'Eaux and István Szabó's Ten Minutes After are shrewd "cinecdotes", told with economy and wit. But the intriguing ideas in Claire Denis's Vers Nancy and Volker Schlöndorff's The Enlightenment are diluted respectively by inert visuals and trite melodramatics. Jean-Luc Godard revisits the iconic imagery of his past in Dans le Noir du Temps, while Mike Figgis recalls Timecode by quartering the screen for the negligible About Time 2. However, the nadir of this disappointingly inconsistent collection is Michael Radford's interminable sci-fi parable, Addicted to the Stars.
