The Dreamers
Paris in 1968 forms the backdrop for this romantic drama about an American student who bonds with a brother and sister over their love of cinema.
Director: Bernardo Bertolucci
Overview
Itβs 1968 and Matthew, an American student, arrives in Paris. When he moves in with Theo and Isabelle, siblings with an unusually liberal relationship, the trio bond over a mutual love of cinema, discussing auteur cinema against the tumult of student protests and a world seemingly consumed by violence. Bertolucciβs loose adaptation of Gilbert Adairβs novel is a riveting, poignant and erotically charged evocation of an era and the cinema that defined it.
