Takeuchi’s works are starkly white pieces, made of glazed porcelain—a rarity...

Although the feel of “Hotel Chevalier,” enhanced by the use of a camera sliding on a track, is distinct from that if “The Darjeeling Limited,” the two films share the remarkable confidence of an extraordinary director well into his prime. —Staff writer Andrew F.
