Cinema Rising: A Summer’s Tale U

Screened in partnership with Cinema Rising
Eric Rohmer, France, 1996, 113m.

Presented by Cinema Rising.

 

The third film in Eric Rohmer’s Four Seasons series, A Summer’s Tale follows Gaspard (Melvil Poupaud), an aspiring musician on holiday in the seaside town Dinard. Moping around while waiting for his sort-of girlfriend Léna (Aurelia Nolin), Gaspard strikes up a friendship with Margot (Amanda Langlet), a waitress conducting research on local Bretons in her free time. One of Margot’s friends, the beautiful Solene (Gwenaëlle Simon), takes an interest in Gaspard, assuaging his low self-esteem, but causing further complications in Gaspard’s increasingly complicated love life.

 

Inspired by Rohmer’s own experiences as a young man, A Summer’s Tale is one of his funniest films - a witty exploration of how romance and attraction shape our sense of self.

Cast:
Melvil Poupaud, Amanda Langlet, Gwenaëlle Simon, Aurelia Nolin
