Four French Films: Echoes of Proust

March 20, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Four French Films: Echoes of Proust
When the first volume of Proust’s In Search of Lost Time appeared in 1913, it created a sensation. A new way of expressing the mysteries of human emotion had been discovered. These four films, each in its own way, visualize intertwining dramas of complex interior lives. The film will be followed by discussion and refreshments.
Casque d’Or
Director Jacques Becker lovingly evokes the Belle Époque Parisian demimonde in this classic tale of doomed romance. With poignant, nuanced performances and sensuous black-and-white photography, Casque d’Or is a romantic masterpiece from a director at the height of his cinematic powers. (1952, 98 min.)
