Un Soir, un Train plot
Mathias (Yves Montand) is a selfish professional who lives in Leuven with his wife Anne, who is more sensitive by nature. He rarely questions their relationship, which is clearly cracked. One evening, during a train journey, Anne mysteriously disappears. Mathias goes looking for her and ends up in a strange region where an unintelligible language is spoken and he has to come to terms with himself.

Film adaptation of the beautiful novel by Johan Daisne (The Train of Slowness).
And director André Delvaux has made a beautiful film of it, especially when we get into quite surrealistic territory halfway through.
Yves Montand speaks a few words of Dutch....and the dance from Calvare indeed seems to come from this film!

This is one of those films in which successive images can be reality, dreams, memories or just fantasies, culminating in a concrete point.
At Delvaux this is called magical realism and the complex novel by Johan Daisne is a welcome source for this.
Film that requires attention (and your own fantasy?) but at the same time continues to fascinate you through imagery, color and not least because of the lively, surprising script.
Delvaux also left nothing to chance as far as the cast is concerned. With Anouk Aimée, shortly after her success with "Un Homme et une Femme" and the always convincing Yves Montand (Throughout his act and especially his movements, I always see a touch of variety / cabaret artist, with which he started his career. Weird .) he puts in the top.
Beautiful film, not too long and interesting to watch in many ways.
