Classici fuori Mostra - La règle du jeu (The Rules of the Game)

“A notorious box-office flop when it was released, twenty years later the film was almost unanimously considered Renoir’s best and one of the greatest of French films”. (Jacques Lourcelles)

“A maudit and mimetic film, a compact film open to different readings, a film that is more Renoir than any other but unique within his body of work, The Rules of the Game appears as a sort of clear fusion of numerous elements that stratify and dissolve into a sublime marivaudage of servants and masters. A war movie with no allusion to war, a decaying society whose principles appear to have disintegrated, a tragic ballet of servants and masters that produces death”. (Gianni Volpi)
