Movie Reviews of The Last Metro
Movie Review: The show must go on!
Summary: 5 Stars
Despite the restrictions of the occupied French by the [...] boot, a Parisian theatrical company decides to continue.
A bold and striking statement in favor of the creative liberty in those opprobrious years of oppression and censure.
One of the smarter icon movies of this unforgettable director. Catherine Deneuve and Gerard Depardieu make each one a superb tour de force performance.
Summary of The Last Metro
Fran?ois Truffaut again tackles the elusive nature of creativity and the elusive creation in this thoughtful, sumptuous, 1980 film. Nominated for the Best Foreign Language film Oscar, and a winner of various C?sars, The Last Metro is a tale of the theater in occupied France during World War?II. Marion Steiner (Catherine Deneuve) manages the Theatre Montmarte in the stead of her Jewish husband, director Lucas Steiner (Heinz Bennent). He has purportedly fled France but is really hiding out in the basement of the theater. The one hope to save the Montmarte is a new play starring the dashing Bernard Granger (G?rard Depardieu). The attraction between Marion and Bernard is palpable, and as usual Truffaut creates tension and drama from even the most casual of occurrences. The theme of the director locked away while his lover and his creation are appropriated by others makes for interesting Truffaut study, but first and foremost this is a well-spun romance. --Keith SimantonArt House & International DVD Video
