Wild Grass DVD
Alain Resnais' latest film was widely recognised as being one of the most enjoyable and audacious films at last year's Cannes Film Festival. The film playfully examines the complications that ensue from the discovery by Georges of Marguerite's stolen purse.
This opens up the possibility for both of them to just follow their impulses heedlessly, that eventually leads to the much-discussed surprise ending. This multi-layered story of the desire for desire, of the sheer oddity of life, is filled with playful touches and great humour, with terrific cinematography, and just-right performances from Resnais regulars Dussollier and Azema, plus Emmanuelle Devos and Mathieu Amalric. Resnais retains all the artistic audacity that made films like Hiroshima Mon Amour, Last Year At Marienbad, and Providence, such classics of modern cinema.
Special Features
Includes Cinemoi Interview With Sabine Azema
