Description
Maurice Pialat’s We Won’t Grow Old Together is the “ultimate bad break-up movie” (J. Hoberman), a combustible portrait of a couple whose love tears them apart.Jean (Jean Yanne, Weekend), a married 40-year-old filmmaker, and his young working class lover Catherine (Marle`ne Jobert, Masculin Fe´minin) engage in a circular series of spectacular blow-ups and tentative reunions, their mutual desire a fire that burns them again and again. This relentless masterpiece is “hard to watch but even harder to look away” (Time Out NY), an end-of-love story for the ages.
