L'Atalante (Vigo)

L'Atalante

Jean Vigo

One of the highlights of pre-war French cinema, this film was the triumph of the poetic over the social, portraying a pair of newlyweds on a barge who are overtaken by the realities of life. The earthy incarnation of Père Jules by Michel Simon at his anarchic best is a joy to behold.
