You find yourself wondering what it was in Truffaut that ever appealed to you. It seemed to be something genuine, and now it seems lost. Full Review

Product Description:

A determined woman endeavors to keep her Jewish husband's theatre operating while the Nazis occupy Paris. Each night, she visits her husband who is hiding in a secret apartment under the stage. Winner of ten French Cesar awards.

Product Description:

Gerard Depardieu and Catherine Deneuve star as members of a French theater company living under the German occupation during World War II in Francois Truffaut's gripping, humanist character study. Against all odds--a Jewish theater manager in hiding; a leading man who's in the Resistance; increasingly restrictive Nazi oversight--the troupe believes the show must go on. Equal parts romance, historical tragedy, and even comedy, The Last Metro (Le dernier metro) is Truffaut's ultimate tribute to art overcoming adversity.
