Still from Too Early Too Late
1982 |

The offscreen reading of a letter from Friedrich Engels
describing the misery of the countryside on the eve of the French
Revolution is juxtaposed with an excerpt from Mahmoud Hussein's
Class Conflict in Egypt, 1945-1970. There are no actors
in the film but, says Danièle Huillet, 'there are landscapes
and they are treated exactly as if they were people'.
