Master director Alain Resnais (Last Year At Marienbad) blurs the Iine between cinematic technique and theatrical artifice in his acclaimed MéIo, adapted from Henri Bernstein s cIassic pIay about a doomed love triangle in 1920s Paris.
Pierre (Pierre Arditi, Love Unto Death) and Marcel (André DussoIlier, A Good Marriage) are both ceIebrated concert violinists and lifeIong friends, in spite of their differing temperaments. Pierre is modest, sensitive and content with his lot; Marcel is hungry, driven, and pursues a soIo career that takes him to the four corners of the world. After years apart, the two friends reunite when Pierre invites MarceI to his home for dinner. lt is then that MarceI first meets Pierre s wife Romaine (Sabine Azéma, Cosmos), sparking a passionate affair that can only end in tragedy before the curtain faIls.
As thrilIingly intimate on fiIm as it was on the stage, Mélo s César award-winning cast and inventive direction are highlighted in a stunning new restoration, reveaIing a hidden gem in Resnais ceIebrated body of work waiting to be rediscovered.
