Abstract
Introduced and with discussion led by Isabelle McNeill (Trinity Hall, Cambridge)
Director: Jacques Demy. Starring: Catherine Deneuve and Nino Castelnuovo. France/West Germany 1964. 91 mins.
An astonishingly beautiful and unusually operatic product of the French New Wave, Jacques Demy’s sung-through musical romance made Catherine Deneuve a star. It tells a bittersweet story of lovers separated by war, illegitimate pregnancy and social and economic pressure to marry someone you don’t necessarily love.
Co-presented by Alliance Française Cambridge. Free admission.
Series This talk is part of the Reproduction on Film: Sex, Secrets and Lies series.
