It has a subsequent theatrical release overseas so it was also a feature as was Scenes from a Marriage. If you care to you can always go back and add it to your list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swithin Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 One of my favorite foreign language films of the 1970s is the Czech film Dinner for Adele. I don't think I ever laughed so much in a movie theater as I did during the scene when the carnivorous plant serves tea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogie56 Posted December 27, 2018 Author Share Posted December 27, 2018 Celine Lomez and Charlotte Boisjoli from Louis Carre's It Can't Be Winter, We Haven't Had Summer Yet (1980). It saw this Quebecois film in the cinema with English subtitles. Film prints are sadly the only way to see most of these French language films with English subtitles as dvd releases do not exist. It Can't Be Winter tells the tale of a woman nearing sixty who is suddenly widowed and how she deals with the traumatic change. As usual, Celine Lomez is a standout. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogie56 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Les Bons Debarras (1980) by Francis Mankiewicz (a distant relative of Ben's!) stars Marie Tifo and Charlotte Laurier. It won 8 Canadian Genie Awards. It takes place in rural Quebec - think Blue Valentine. Tifo is a single mother of young Laurier. Laurier resents the time her mother spends with a suitor and therein lies the conflict. This film is on dvd with English subtitles. But as one reviewer pointed out the dvd distributor refused to get involved with the people restoring the film for theatrical re-release and used a very poor quality video print as their source material. It's a sad state of affairs when films from the 1970's and 1980's are now the hardest to obtain copies of. The small distribution companies have either gone belly up or have no interest in spending money on a release of an old film. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogie56 Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 August Schellenberg stars as a man falsely accused of murder in The Coffin Affair (1980) by Jean-Claude Larecque of Quebec. It's not a bad look at how a corrupt government can concoct a case against an innocent man for political expediency. Gabriel Arcand and Micheline Lanctot co-star. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
