Event Description
Grand Illusion
1937. France. Directed by Jean Renoir. With Jean Gabin, Pierre Fresnay, Erich von Stroheim, Marcel Dalio. One of the few genuine masterpieces resulting from the Great War, Renoir’s depiction of French prisoners ultimately escaping from the Germans is a pacifist plea for common humanity that failed to prevent an even greater conflict from breaking out two years later. In French; English subtitles. 113 min.
