| | |  |  A Season of Rohmer
Eric Rohmer (1920–2010) changed the course of contemporary filmmaking with his eloquent, elegant, and probing films focused on small moral dilemmas in the everyday lives of young, middle-class people. His trademark comedies of manners are, in fact, as much about his characters' linguistic habits as they are about their lives, loves, and entanglements. This retrospective, presented at the National Gallery, the American Film Institute Silver Theatre, and La Maison Francaise, includes all extant works. With thanks to Institut francais, AFI, the Embassy of France, Films du Losange, and the French-American Cultural Foundation. All films are in French with subtitles unless otherwise noted.
