    Some connections with painter Paul Delvaux

    Even if there is no biographic connection between Andre Delvaux and Belgian painter Paul Delvaux, there is at least two of the films in the inspiration of the extraordinary painter's work, and in both we find an extremely common theme in his paintings of trains and train stations. The first one is in the movie "Un soir,un train" (1968) and the second one in this film at minute 25:50 in Mathieu's incestuous dream
