JEAN PIERRE JEUNET FILM SERIES
Thursdays Jan 28 ��� Feb 25
8pm, Assembly Room
Free
Co-sponsored by the Bechtel
International
Center and the
French Stanford Student Association.
Jean-Pierre Jeunet is the popular and critically
acclaimed director of films such as Am��lie, Delicatessen, A Very Long
Engagement, Alien Resurrection, and City of Lost Children. Jeunet's
work exemplifies Europe's engagement with Hollywood, while at the
same time making him a figurehead of the critically overlooked, specifically
French tradition of the cinema of the fantastic. Having garnered both commercial
success and critical esteem in genres such as science fiction, fantasy, romantic
comedy, and the war epic, Jeunet's work nevertheless engages with key aspects of
French history and contemporary French culture.
January 28 : Am��lie
(2001)
February 4 :
Delicatessen (1991)
February 11 : Alien:
Resurrection (1997)
February 18 : The city
of lost children (1995)
February 25 : A very
long engagement (2004)
January 28 : Am��lie
(2001)
A painfully shy waitress working at a tiny
Paris cafe, Am��lie
makes a surprising discovery and sees her life drastically changed for the
better! From then on, Am��lie dedicates herself to helping others find happiness
... in the most delightfully unexpected way! But will she have the courage to do
for herself what she has done for others? Perhaps the most charming movie of all
time. Nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Original Screenplay, this
magical comedy earned overwhelming acclaim worldwide.
