🎥DETAILS:
Just in time to inspire your own summer adventures, Lost In Frenchlation is proud to present our fourth film in our classics series, “L’Homme de Rio.” Fast-paced and uproariously funny, the story follows the charming couple of Jean-Paul Belmondo and Françoise Dorléac as they race through Rio in search of a hidden treasure. One of the key inspirations to the ‘Indiana Jones’ franchise, this James Bond-spoof was nominated for an Oscar for Best Writing, Story and Screenplay in 1964.
•THE MOVIE:
French military man Adrien Dufourquet (Jean-Paul Belmondo) gets an eight-day furlough to visit his fiancée, Agnès (Françoise Dorléac). But when he arrives in Paris, he learns that her late father’s partner, museum curator Professor Catalan (Jean Servais), has just been kidnapped by a group of Amazon tribesmen who have also stolen a priceless statue from the museum. Adrien and Agnes pursue the kidnappers to Brazil, where they learn that the statue is the key to a hidden Amazon treasure. – Plot
“It’s visual poetry of the most basic sort, and it may evoke a line by Agnès from earlier in the film: “How can you be blasé amid all these wonders?”” – Roger Ebert

EXTRAS: Optional Amelie-themed walking tour through Montmartre at 6pm – tickets available here: https://www.weezevent.com/lost-in-frenchlation-x-cine-balade-present-montmartre-amelie-walking-tour-5
🎦DETAILS:
Lost in Frenchlation is proud to present, ‘Pain and Glory’, the first international screening with English subtitles on July 5th, with the chance to explore Montmartre with our additional walking tour through the lens of ‘Amelie’ and Parisian cinema. From the mind of legendary Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar, comes his new, semi-autobiographical drama with frequent collaborators Penelope Cruz and Antonio Banderas.
🎥THE MOVIE:
‘Pain and Glory’ tells of a series of re-encounters experienced by Salvador Mallo, played by Antonio Banderas, a film director in his physical decline, some of them in the flesh, others remembered: his childhood in the 60s, when he emigrated with his parents to a village in Valencia in search of prosperity; his first desire; his first adult love in the Madrid of the 80s; the pain of the breakup of that love while it was still alive and intense and writing as the only therapy to forget the unforgettable; his early discovery of cinema; and the void, the infinite void that creates the incapacity for him to keep on making films. ‘Pain and Glory’ talks about creation, about the difficulty of separating it from one’s own life and about the passions that give it meaning and hope. In recovering his past, Salvador finds the urgent need to recount it, and in that need he also finds his salvation. – Plot
“The director delivers another sensuous and deeply personal gem as Antonio Banderas’s ageing filmmaker faces up to death.” – The Guardian
“Antonio Banderas excels as a version of the Spanish auteur in what may be the closest he comes to crafting a memoir in the medium he knows best.” – Variety

Selected at ACID Cannes 2019, “Vif Argent” comes as a comfort, reassuring our beliefs in cinema, and it’s ability to make worlds apart come together, refusing what was deemed unavoidable.

The film’s grace is also due to the breaches it offers onto luminous outside worlds. To the delicate manners in which it collects memories, treating words and images like precious pearls. And to the manner it connects to a simple materialism of things, coming from a romanticism without bombast, both mysterious and literal. – Review

📽DETAILS:

Lead Actress Noemie Merlant AND director Nathan Ambrosioni will join us at Luminor this Thursday for a Q&A session following the showing of their film “Les Drapeaux de Papier”. Directed at only 18 years old, this dramatic and touching film explores the rocky relationship between two siblings and an ex-con’s adjustment to life after prison.

🎥THE MOVIE:

Charlie, soon to be 24 years old, leads a life without excess: she is an artist, and a dreamer, and is struggling to make ends meet. When her brother comes to find her after twelve years of absence, her life is shaken up. Vincent is 30 years old and has just come out of prison where he has served a long sentence. He has everything to learn in a world he does not know anymore, but Charlie is ready to help him. It is her brother after all, but his anger has potential to become uncontrollable and destroy everything in spite of himself. – Plot

Gestures, faces, hands in the light, shadows on the walls, small symbolic objects: the director (who edited the film himself) has an innate sense of image, which allows him to tackle a very harsh human topic in a relatively delicate manner, directing a first feature film with promising realism and surprising maturity for such a young filmmaker. – CineEuropa

Very attentive to his intrigue, to the rhythm of subtle development, and empathic towards his characters, with a demanding mise en images, “Les Drapeaux de Papier” is a magnificent success. – Culturebox

Agnès Varda eloquently captures Paris in the sixties with this real-time portrait of a singer (Corinne Marchand) set adrift in the city as she awaits test results of a biopsy. A chronicle of the minutes of one woman’s life, Cléo from 5 to 7 is a spirited mix of vivid vérité and melodrama, featuring a score by Michel Legrand and cameos by Jean-Luc Godard and Anna Karina. – Plot

On March 9, one day after International Women’s Day, Lost in Frenchlation and Ciné-Balade will team together to celebrate one of the greatest French directors, “the grandmother of New Wave”, Agnès Varda. Through the streets of Montparnasse, Denfert and Vavin, we will travel to the filming locations of her films and in particular the very feminist “Cléo from 5 to 7” which will be screened afterwards by Lost in Frenchlation. Being a local for more than 60 years, Varda likes to say that by understanding the people, we better understand the place, and by understanding the place, we can better understand the people. So let’s go to the discovery of Agnès and Cléo by viewing film clips in an open-air setting. We won’t forget to pay homage to Michel Legrand, her longtime friend, who had composed and acted for the movie of our evening. The walk starts at 5:30pm and lasts for approximately 1 hour and a half. ☞ LIMITED TICKETS: https://www.weezevent.com/lost-in-frenchlation-x-cine-balade-present-agnes-varda-movie-tour

📽DETAILS:
Amandine Gay’s feature directorial debut, OUVRIR LA VOIX (SPEAK UP) was born out of her desire to “occupy public space and to explain why the intersection of discriminations faced by black women in France is as problematic as it is political.” A celebration of the diversity of womanhood within the global African diaspora, Gay calls the film her response to the need for black francophone women to reclaim their narrative, and challenge the suppression of their voices, revealing the complexity and diversity of their lives and identities. Inspiring a conversation through intertwined narratives, SPEAK UP also exalts the history of black women’s resistance – those who’ve fought to be heard, and a testimony to those who will continue to fight into the future. To celebrate Black History Month, Lost in Frenchlation and Fondation des États-Unis teamed up to bring it to you with English subtitles on Thursday 7 February, followed by a debate with the film crew.
🎥THE MOVIE:
Women of African descent converse about what it means to be a woman today and belong to the Afro community. By sharing their experiences and aspirations for the future, they speak up and take control again of their own representation. – Synopsis
“A touching and lucid Afro-feminist documentary, showing how racist clichés are thick skinned”
Les Inrockuptibles
“As radically frank in style as in substance, […] a film of experience and of reflection. It is both a vital film in itself and a virtual kit for the inspiration of other filmmakers; it’s an opening of voices and of paths”
