(1966, Claude Lelouch) Race car driver Jean-Louis Trintignant and script girl Anouk Aimée meet at their kids’ boarding school, and then the flashbacks and the can’t-get-it-out-of-your-head Francis Lai theme begin, in the undeniably romantic international smash hit. Winner of the Cannes Palme d’Or and double Oscar-winner for Best Foreign Film and Best Original Screenplay. DCP. Approx. 103 min.

Reviews

“Probably the most efficacious make-out movie of the swinging 60s.”
– Pauline Kael, The New Yorker

“How to resist a pairing as photogenic as Anouk Aimée and Jean-Louis Trintignant? She plays the widow, haunted and gravely beautiful; he is the racing driver smitten by her. (His ratty handsomeness recalls something of Bogart). I couldn't take my eyes off either of them.”
– Anthony Quinn, The Independent (UK)
