Sundays with French Cinema: Le Feu Follet

Le Feu Follet

17 APR 2016 | Celebrating more than a century of glorious film-making, the Gaumont Company has been responsible for putting up some of the most iconic films in history. Over 7 weeks, The Projector will ben screening some of the vintage classics – from Godard to Scorsese to Besson.

After garnering international acclaim, Louis Malle gave his fans a shock with The Fire Within, a penetrating study of individual and social inertia. Alain Leroy, a self-destructive writer who resolves to kill himself and spends the next twenty-four hours trying to reconnect with a host of wayward friends. Unsparing in its portrait of Alain s inner turmoil and shot with remarkable clarity, The Fire Within is one of Malle’s darkest and most personal films.

Sundays with French Cinema: Le Feu Follet is happening on Sunday, 17 April 2016, 2pm at The Projector. For more details, check out the event page here.

Gary is one of those proverbial jack of all trades… you know the rest. When not writing about lifestyle and culture, he dabbles in photography, graphic design, plays four instruments and is a professional wearer of bowties. His greatest weakness: spending more money on clothes than he probably should. Find him across the social world as @grimlay
