We've programmed what we hope is an amazing selection of movies of love, romance, emotion from all over the world during this Valentine's month.

Tonight, our Secret Movie Club team member Josh Oakley has chosen for his birthday selection the wildly ambitious and beautiful and heart-rending THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG.

Winner of the 1964 Palm D'Or, this Jacque Demy directed French musical romance stars Catherine Deneuve (impossibly stunning) and Nino Castelnuovo as young lovers who meet (Part 1), are torn apart by circumstance (Part 2), and then re-connect (part 3).

One of the most striking aspects of this international masterpiece, possibly never equaled, is that the entire movie is SUNG. The score by Michel Legrand makes the most of this cinematic experiment with incredible melodies, reprises, songs that start at the beginning of the lovers' romance and take on added emotion, irony, bittersweetness, as they navigate through the curveballs of life.

One of THE key 1960's world cinema movies, bring your lover and enjoy a Valentine's Month cinematic masterpiece with us.

Best always,

Craig Hammill

35mm Secret Movie Club Founder.Programmer
