THE WAITING ROOM FILM PROJECT / THE CINEMA OF CLAIRE DENIS 1.5

The Tindersticks' latest audio visual project is more than just an experimental long form music video. The Waiting Room is also a visual homage/look back on some of Claire Denis' previous films to which they provided music for (with the exception of U.S. Go Home). While multiple filmmakers worked on this (one of them being Denis), I still mostly see references to her work...

The Waiting Room also references filmmakers like Godard, Cluzot & Tarkovsky (intentional or not), which adds an additional subconscious layer as Claire Denis worked under Tarkovsky (Sacrifice) and referenced Godard's work (Vivre Sa Vie) in the past...
