Director CHARLES chabot Producer GAVIN MILLAR
Tonight's film:
La Regle du Jeu
Starring Marcel Dalio Nora Gregor
Christine, beautiful and wilful, is torn between a dashing young admirer, her rich husband and an old childhood friend. Then a crime passionnel takes place during a smart house-party at the chateau of the Marquis de la Chesnaye and as the threads of the affair are unravelled, the complete breakdown and decay of a social class emerge in this biting indictment of a society without values where flirtation and adultery take the place of love. The climax of the film, in which a rabbit-shoot degenerates into a human battle, remains one of the most powerful sequences in the history of the cinema.
Written by JEAN RENOIR and KARL KOCH Produced by CLAUDE RENOIR Directed by JEAN RENOIR
