The Museum in partnership with Queens Theatre in the Park will present six of the greatest, must-see films of all time in Moving Image Masterpieces.
Rules of the Game screens October 29. Filmed by Jean Renoir as the storm clouds of war were hovering over Europe, this romantic rondelay set during a weekend hunting party is unparalleled in its emotionally and cinematically rich portrayal of romance and intrigue among a fading aristocracy. Filled with comedy and tragedy, the film is masterfully choreographed, yet it spills over with the vitality of life. Jean Renoir, the greatest of French directors, was the son of impressionist painter Auguste Renoir. (1939, 105 mins. Digital projection. With Marcel Dalio, Nora Gregor.)
Screening introduced by David Schwartz, Chief Curator of Museum of the Moving Image.
Note: This event takes place at Queens Theatre in the Park, located in Flushing Meadows Corona Park.
