The Rules of the Game
New 35mm print
One of cinema's most monumental achievements, Renoir's RULES OF THE GAME passionately tackles the pre-WWII French class system, and succeeds in bringing forth the complexities and frailties underlying bourgeois civility. When aviator Andre Jurieu (Toutain) is met by his friend Octave (director Renoir) and ecstatic reporters after a record-setting flight, he tells the radio audience that he undertook the adventure for the love of a woman--who failed to greet him at the airport. RULES OF THE GAME has a flavor like no other film, its tone covering farce, satire, and tragedy alike.
