La Guerre Est Finie

(1966, DCP, 121m, French w/English subtitles) dir Alain Resnais w/Yves Montand, Ingrid Thulin, Geneviève Bujold, Jean Dasté. In the wake of the Spanish Civil War, a middle-aged Communist (Montand) is caught between his anti-Francoism and some violent anti-fascist extremists. Once dismissed as a minor Resnais work, La Guerre now feels more important than ever.

Read MH Rowe’s Perisphere essay on Diego Mora’s revolutionary journey, Yves Montand’s perfect pout, and where La Guerre est finie fits in with Alain Resnais’s filmography.
