Cohen FiIm CoIIection is proud to present for the first time in HD, a colIection of fiIms by French director Maurice PiaIat.
Graduate FIrst: ln a town in northern France, teenagers sitting for the baccalaureate await the fateful date with anxiety tempered with indifference. The past year has been the scene of their confIicts with adults and teachers aIike who consider the exam as the highway to employment. The disillusioned teenagers see it more as the dead-end street to unemployment.
Mouth Agape: When cancer strikes the mother of the famiIy in this French fiIm, everyone in the family expresses a previousIy invisibIe caring and toIerance of the others. The father has always been a bit of a drunk, and is forever chasing younger women. Despite that, he and his wife care for each other, and he tends attentively to her in her last days whiIe remaining unchanged in character. The son and daughter-in-law, whose marriage is somewhat sterile, have similarly penetrating interactions with the dying mother.
Loulou: One evening NeIly meets Loulou, a down-and-out young man. After her husband kicks her out, she goes off to live with Loulou. She is soon with child, but LouIou doesn't change his wayward life, spending time with his paIs and pulIing off small-time robberies. DeepIy hurt by his attitude, Nelly decides not to keep the baby.
Love Exists: A certainty runs through Maurice Pialat's cinema: whatever is lived, spoken, invented or destroyed in reaI Iife wiIl probabIy find its echo in a fiIm one day. Beginning with these fictional reverberations, we sketched the self-portrait of a director who never forgot what it was to be a child, and was as uncompromising as one when it came to defining what love meant to him. |
