We Won't Grow Old Together
Pialat's (A nos amours) second feature was a hit in France upon it release in 1972, won actor Jean Yanne Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival, and screened a the New York Film Festival, but it never opened in the United States (and is here receiving its U.S. home video premiere). Heavily autobiographical, "it tells the story of endless breakups and makeup's of highly unstable yet apparently indissoluble couple... depicting the protracted end of a five year affair" (Dave Kehr). Jean (Jean Yanne, Weekend), a married 40-year-old filmmaker, and his young working class lover Catherine (Marlene Jobert, Masculin Feminin) engage in a circular series of spectacular blow-ups and tentative reunions, their mutual desire a fire that burns them again and again.
