Trois Couleurs: Rouge - English subtitled
Modern classic starring Irène Jacob as a fashion model whose life’s path crosses, by a twist of fate, with that of an embittered judge, played by Jean-Louis Trintignant.
Nominated for three Academy Awards, Kieślowski’s magnificent final feature is an astonishing affirmation of life and art. The film concerns the unlikely meeting between the beautiful model Valentine and a retired judge, whose dog she has run over with her car. The judge, she discovers, amuses himself by eavesdropping on each of his neighbours’ phone conversations. Meanwhile, near Valentine’s apartment lives a young man who aspires to be a judge and loves a woman who will betray him. (source: New York Film Festival)
