Synopsis:
Sébastien (Jean-Pierre Kalfon, Weekend ) is staging an adaptation of Racine's tragedy, Andromaque while a film crew captures their rehearsals on handheld 16mm. The production's star and Sebastian's wife, Claire (Bulle Ogier, Out 1 ), cannot take the pressure and removes herself. Life imitates art, creating a tragedy for the couple when Sébastien recasts the role with his ex. L'amour fou is a hypnotic study of tempestuous love, told with director Jacques Rivette's signature reflexivity and containing striking examinations of performance, art, theater and life. A classic of the French New Wave and one of Rivette's most radical works, L'amour fou was unavailable for years, with the original elements tragically burned in a fire. Now meticulously restored, Radiance Films is proud to present this masterpiece from a new 4K restoration.
