MANON film still

Winner of the top prize at the 1949 Venice Film Festival, this Clouzot rarity transposes Abbé Prévost’s 1731 novel Manon Lescaut to post-WWII France. It tells of a French Resistance fighter (Michel Auclair) who rescues a young woman accused of being a Nazi collaborator (Cécile Aubry) from villagers who want to do her harm. Falling for her, he takes her to Paris. But there she is further tainted by her shady brother (Serge Reggiani). Subtitles. 100 min.

Special event pricing $11; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, and those age 25 & under $8. No passes, twofers, or radio winners.
