Summary of Mon Oncle Antoine:
The holiday season in a small Quebec village provides the basis for this bittersweet slice-of-life comedy, written and directed by Claude Jutra. Orphaned 14-year-old Benoit (Jacques Gagnon) comes to live with a foster family in a Canadian mining village in the 1940's and becomes a part of the comical foibles and the heartbreaks of a French-Canadian small town. Gagnon gives a hauntingly realistic portrayal of an innocent discovering life's funny and tragic turns. Grand Prize Winner of the Chicago Film Festival.
I think Georges Alexander and Lise Brunelle worked wonderful in Mon Oncle Antoine. The great supporting cast includes Georges Alexander, Lise Brunelle, Rene Salvatore Catta, Lyne Champagne, Jean Dubost.
This spy adventure drama is an early film in the career of French director Claude Chabrol. Legendary screen icon Jean Seberg (BREATHLESS) stars as the widow of a murdered undercover NATO security man who is killed in Greece over sneaky dealings at a US radar installation. She is implicated as a suspect and, as a result, must go to great lengths to clear her name. Through her many trials, all set against the exotic Greek backdrops, Seberg must deal with fake priests, a pornographically obsessed millionaire, various secret agents, and Chabrol himself in a slight role as an informer.
