HALLELUJAH THE HILLS (1963) 81'
Description
"Shot following the good old principle of one idea per shot, his Hills are redolent with fresh ingenuity and shrewd kindness. Physical effort boldly rubs shoulders with intellectual gags. We're moved and laugh at the slightest thing: a poorly framed bush, a banana in a pocket, a majorette in the snow..."
— Jean-Luc Godard, Cahiers du Cinéma
"Hallelujah the Hills is also a film about friendship where Jack and Leo prove to each other that there is no better friend for man than man, and where Gideon, by stealing away Vera, the idol of their thoughts, after seven years of waiting, reveals to them that there is also no greater enemy."
— Michel Ciment
