Sunday Nov 18 - 7:30pm: Miami Beach Cinematheque screening:
Children of Paradise (Les Enfants du Paradis) by Marcel Carné (2017)
Curator's comment:
"Poetic realism reached sublime heights with Children of Paradise,widely considered one of the greatest French films of all time. This nimble depiction of nineteenth-century Paris's theatrical demimonde, filmed during World War II, follows a mysterious woman (Arletty) loved by four different men (all based on historical figures): an actor, a criminal, a count, and, most poignantly, a mime (Jean-Louis Barrault, in a longing-suffused performance for the ages). With sensitivity and dramatic élan, director Marcel Carné and screenwriter Jacques Prévert resurrect a world teeming with hucksters and aristocrats, thieves and courtesans, pimps and seers. And thanks to a major new restoration, this iconic classic looks and sounds richer and more detailed than ever..." Diliana Alexander.
