A structuralist film about narrative structure, "Intermezzo" compresses five cinematic melodramas by compiling parallel fragments through a polyphonic over-lapping of time-frames, to foreground the meta-narrative behind the genre, yet remains a melodrama at heart. The motion pictures used are (in order of appearance) Gregory Ratoff: Intermezzo (1939), Douglas Sirk: Interlude (1957), John M. Stahl: When Tomorrow Comes (1939), David Lean: Summertime (1955) and Gustav Molander: Intermezzo (1936).
