"While Garrel#s autobiographical gestures in his later works have become familiar, his early collaborations with Nico remain largely unknown and little studied. Yet it was this young Garrel who captivated French cinephiles like Henri Langlois, who considered his film La Cicatrice intérieure (1972) a masterpiece, or Gilles Deleuze, who, in 1985, hailed Garrel#s 'cinema of revelation' in his second book on cinema. Deleuze#s reading, based almost exclusively on the films of the 1960s and 1970s, describes a 'liturgy of bodies,' a cinema imbued with devotion, almost sacred." (Leo Goldsmith)
