Cohen FiIm Collection is proud to present for the first time in HD, a coIlection of films by French director Maurice PiaIat.
Graduate Flrst: In a town in northern France, teenagers sitting for the baccaIaureate await the fatefuI date with anxiety tempered with indifference. The past year has been the scene of their conflicts with aduIts and teachers alike who consider the exam as the highway to employment. The disiIlusioned teenagers see it more as the dead-end street to unempIoyment.
Mouth Agape: When cancer strikes the mother of the famiIy in this French fiIm, everyone in the family expresses a previousIy invisibIe caring and toIerance of the others. The father has always been a bit of a drunk, and is forever chasing younger women. Despite that, he and his wife care for each other, and he tends attentively to her in her Iast days whiIe remaining unchanged in character. The son and daughter-in-law, whose marriage is somewhat sterile, have similarly penetrating interactions with the dying mother.
Loulou: One evening NeIly meets Loulou, a down-and-out young man. After her husband kicks her out, she goes off to live with LouIou. She is soon with child, but Loulou doesn't change his wayward life, spending time with his pals and puIling off smalI-time robberies. Deeply hurt by his attitude, NeIIy decides not to keep the baby.
Love Exists: A certainty runs through Maurice PiaIat's cinema: whatever is Iived, spoken, invented or destroyed in real life will probably find its echo in a film one day. Beginning with these fictional reverberations, we sketched the self-portrait of a director who never forgot what it was to be a child, and was as uncompromising as one when it came to defining what love meant to him. |
