| Abstract | L'heure espagnole compares the wound-up mechanism of a clock with the erotic compulsions driving flesh-and-blood humans, with Concepción devising a complex sequence of moves and counter-moves to conceal the presence of her various admirers. While L'enfant et les sortileges shares a child's-eye view of a sometimes threatening world where inanimate objects come to life when a child, fed up with doing his homework, throws a temper tantrum. |
