Last Afternoon (1980)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
Short parody of black film whose male hero meets a mysterious lady who turns out to be his destiny, of course. Unlike black film, where action defines structure, here the actions of the characters are more enigmatic because they are subject to the filmic structure. Décor: the "Trou" des Halles, the passage Molière, the rue aux Ours, the square des Blancs-Manteaux.

Open Double Feature RadarRadar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
