Technicolor of Love

"Brilliant! Spirited! French Cancan will go down in the history of color cinema."—François Truffaut, Arts Magazine

Presented in 16mm!

Nineteenth-century Paris comes vibrantly alive in Jean Renoir’s (The Rules of the Game) exhilarating tale of the opening of the world-renowned Moulin Rouge. Jean Gabin plays the wily impresario Danglard, who makes the cancan all the rage while juggling the love of two beautiful women—his belly-dancer mistress Lola (María Félix) and a naive working girl turned cancan star (Françoise Arnoul). This celebration of life, art and the City of Light (with a cameo by Edith Piaf) is a Technicolor tour de force by a master of modern cinema that evokes the Impressionist painters of the era.
