The French Cinema: Bay of Angels (Baie des Anges)

on BBC Two England

Presenting a series of feature films reflecting some of the finest work of France's most famous and talented directors and artists

This week: Bay of Angels (Baie des Anges)
Starring Jeanne Moreau

A young Paris bank-clerk and a compulsive gambler are drawn together by the fortunes and misfortunes of the Casino.
Bay of Angels benefits from the same freshness and gaiety which made Jacques Demy's Lola (already shown on 'World Cinema') such a success. Jeanne Moreau is ideally cast as the compulsive gambler who lives only for the present. At times moody and fickle, at times sparkling and passionate, she gives one of the finest performances of her career.
