http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/03/today_the_stranger_suggests_16 The Earrings of Madame de... (Film) The new year-round cinema programmed by the diabolically expanding Seattle International Film Festival Group is opening its doors with over 30 pristine prints from Janus Films. The series kicks off with a rarely screened spritz of genius from Max Ophüls, The Earrings of Madame de..., about adulterous thoughts, 360-degree shots, diamond pendants dripping with irony, and highly meaningful acts of candle snuffery. It's totally ludicrous, and pretty much perfect. (SIFF Cinema at McCaw Hall, 321 Mercer St, 464-5830, seattlefilm.org. 7 pm, $9.) ANNIE WAGNER...

Looked very interesting.
