I agree it’s probably IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT, but geez, what a lame clue. Especially coming on the heels of the equally lame A RAISIN IN THE SUN clue.

No, the SPF was a necessary detail that explained why the grapes would turn to raisins. The book is just doing nothing.
Again the book could easily be there to indicate it's an adaptation of a book

Do we even need to unlock this? Very amusing clue, and vindication for many here who have been championing this tremendous movie

No, it's also the sun, just doesn't happen as often so not many know about it

The window looks like a door, must be a double clue.

Claire Denis's Let the Sunshine In? Seems kinda obvious.

Totally missed it the first time, the text is dwarfed by the image. Either way, the Google synopsis for this film is hilariously asinine:
Following Isabelle, a middle-aged Parisian artist and divorced mother, as she looks for love and meets different characters.
So at least I took something away from this process. And met different characters!
