Dir. Alain Resnais. 2006, 120 mins. With Sabine Azéma, Lambert Wilson, André Dussollier. With a steady snowfall as the backdrop, Resnais’s poignant and graceful adaptation of Alan Ayckbourn’s play about six loosely-connected and lonely people is a lyrical, stylish study of urban alienation. “Accessible, pleasant, dreamy, a touch goofy and melancholic.” (Manohla Dargis, The New York Times).Free with Museum admission.
