The Umbrellas of Cherbourg
1964. France. Written and directed by Jacques Demy. With Catherine Deneuve, Nino Castelnuovo, Anne Vernon. Jacques Demy's 1964 Palme d'Or winner remains a masterwork of musical cinema. Brilliant color, effervescent songs, and the newly discovered twenty-year-old Catherine Deneuve combine to stunning effect. This restoration, supervised by Demy's widow and fellow Zeitgeist filmmaker Agnes Varda, returns one of the most beloved French films of all time to its original splendor. In French; English subtitles. 82 min.
