French film-maker Eric Rohmer dies
French film-maker Eric Rohmer has died at the age of 89, his production house has said.

He was the director of the critically acclaimed Tales of Four Seasons and one of the key figures of the post-war New Wave cinema movement.

Rohmer, born Maurice Scherer, made more than 20 feature films over 50 years.
...
Rohmer said he wanted to look at "thoughts rather than actions", dealing "less with what people do than what is going on in their minds while they are doing it".

1. I loved Rohmers films
the visuals were just so nice to watch I didn't even bother to read the subtitles some times.
