La Règle du jeu

★ Editor's Pick

Jean Renoir  ·  France  ·  1939

DramaComedy 1930s

Over a weekend hunting party at a French château, the intricate social games of the aristocracy expose jealousy, hypocrisy, and the unspoken rules that everyone follows and no one believes in. Renoir's perfect tragicomedy — a film that was booed at its premiere and is now considered among the greatest ever made.
