Considered one of the greatest films ever made, The
Rules Of The Game , by Jean Renoir
, is a scathing critique of corrupt
French society cloaked in a comedy of manners, in
which a weekend at a marquis's countryside chateau
Iays bare some ugly truths about a group of haute
bourgeois acquaintances. The film was a victim of
tumuItuous history-it was subjected to cuts after
premiere audiences rejected it in 1939, and the
originaI negative was destroyed during World War II;
it wasn't reconstructed untiI 1959. That version, which
has stunned viewers for decades, is presented here. |
