EMERGENCY KISSES

LES BAISERS DE SECOURS
France | 1989 | Philippe Garrel

EMERGENCY KISSES film still

Members of the Garrel clan—director Philippe, his actor father Maurice, his then-wife Brigitte Sy, and his then five-year-old son Louis (making his screen debut)—essentially play themselves in this tender, wrenching drama showing here in a rare 35mm print imported from France. The movie follows a philandering filmmaker who foments family discord when he refuses to cast his actress wife in a role largely based on her. “[A] masterpiece.” –Sight & Sound. Subtitles. 90 min.

Special admission $12; members, CIA & CSU I.D. holders, and those age 25 & under $9; no passes, twofers, or radio winners.
