Children of Paradise
This masterpiece by Marcel Carné demonstrates more than any other that film is the medium where all the art forms meet in perfect harmony. Carné and writer Jacques Prévert cleverly bring theater, literature, music, architecture and design together to tell a timeless tale of love and life. A beautiful woman named Garance who attracts several men including a thief, an aristocrat and an actor but falls for a romantic mime. The outstanding cast includes Arletty, Jean-Louis Barrault and Pierre Brasseur amongst others. The film remains a milestone in cinema among the greatest ever made.
