Set in Paris in 1942, Truffaut’s stirring tribute to the Resistance and to theatre is Deneuve’s first pairing with Gérard Depardieu. Marion takes over the theatre managed by her German-Jewish husband after he goes into hiding. She hires Bernard (Depardieu) as the star of her new production, and as rehearsals proceed, an attraction grows between them. A calm, powerful film about love, drama and the place of art and performance in war time. Le Dernier métro was nominated for the Academy Awards and awarded ten Césars in 1981.
