FEATURED FILM:
MAN ON THE TRAIN
R | 90 mins | 2003 | France
This lovely life-affirming film from Director Patrice Leconte is a touchstone, one where I yearn to re-watch it every 5 years. Milan (Johnny Hallyday) arrives by train in a small French town to find the only hotel is closed for the season. But he finds accommodation via chance meeting with a retired teacher, Manesquier (Jean Rochefort). A relationship develops between these apparent opposites, though looming in the background are two unavoidable events that each is expecting to take... Manesquier is to undergo surgery and Milan is quite secretive about his intended plan.
"Goes from good to great in 90 minutes and then its over, except that its really not, because this small masterwork grows even deeper and more affecting as it takes up permanent residence in your memory." - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
