SUMMARY:Southbury Ciné-Club - 12noon
DESCRIPTION:Come watch this fun 2011 movie “POTICHE”  (“Trophy Wife”) directed by Francois Ozon. \nIn 1977 France\, tightfisted factory owner Robert Pujol is so shocked when his workers strike for higher wages that he suffers a heart attack. His acquiescent wife\, Suzanne (Catherine Deneuve)\, whose father had founded the factory\, takes over management duties during Robert’s convalescence. To her own surprise\, Suzanne turns out to be a natural leader whose less dictatorial management inspires both her workers and local liberal politician Babin (Gérard Depardieu). \nWe’ll play it in French with English subtitles.  1hr 43 min. \nAmenez votre déjeuner et venez regarder le film avec nous. \nThis program is free for AFNWCT members and students. \nRSVP is kindly requested for new attendees by calling (203) 707-0710.

SUMMARY:Ciné-Souper-Discuter @ 6pm
DESCRIPTION:Nous avons démarré une série de projections de films de la liste Anne-Christine Rice* que nous appelons Ciné-Souper-Discuter. Notre deuxieme projection aura lieu vendredi le 17 juin à 18h. Ce soir nous allons projecter le film: \nCyrano de Bergerac (1990)   This is an excellent comedy and considered Anne-Christine’s top choice for the “Cape et Épée” (swashbuckling) categorie of best French films. Soldier and poet Cyrano de Bergerac (Gérard Depardieu) is in love with Roxane (Anne Brochet)\, but he’s too ashamed to admit it because of his big nose. When a cadet\, Christian (Vincent Perez)\, falls for Roxane\, he asks for Cyrano’s help in sharing his feelings. Cyrano writes love letters signed with Christian’s name\, and Roxane doesn’t realize that it’s Cyrano’s words she falls for. She marries Christian\, and Cyrano continues to keep the other man’s secret\, even after tragedy strikes.  Director: Jean-Paul Rappeneau. Received the Cesar Award for Best Actor and Best Film \nVenez manger une tranche de pizza et buvez un verre de vin pendant la projection d’un film puis rester après pour discuter du film. Seulement $5 pour AFNWCT membres et $10 for non-membres. \nPlease RSVP by Thursday\, 6/17 so we know how much pizza to buy. \n*Anne-Christine Rice was a recent speaker for “Beyond Amelie: 10 French Films for Francophiles. She teaches French language and Film at Tufts University\, where she is also the founder and director of the French Film Experience (French cine-club). She is the author of the best-selling textbook\, “Cinema for French Conversation\,” an exciting book for incorporating French cinema and culture into a French language course. Her other textbook\, “La France contemporaine à travers ses films” leverages film to explore present-day French culture and society.
