Un homme et une femme
One of the most iconic films of the 1960s, about the unexpected romance between two life-drawn people. Golden Palm winner in Cannes and Oscar for best foreign language film.
A man and a woman meet by accident on a Sunday evening at their children’s boarding school. He is a race car driver and she is a script girl, both widowers. They fall in love, but memories of the past cast long shadows.
Claude Lelouch was only 28 years when he created this tender, visually exciting film of revitalizing love with two fantastic actors. Last year, he completed LES PLUS BELLES ANNÉES D’UNE VIE, a continuation of the story that began with UN HOMME ET UNE FEMME more than fifty years ago. This follow-up film is shown in Lumière Cinema from July 2 onward.
