Julliette Binoche deadpans.\\xa0 Sudden fade to black! Dum dum da dummmmm..!\\xa0 Repeat that about four more times and you have one of the most iconic pieces of 1990s European cinema.\\xa0 Does this formula hold up for two jaded cinephiles at the end of 2020?\\xa0 The first installment of Krzysztof Kieslowski's ambitious Three Colours Trilogy doesn't pull any punches with his breathless character study of a woman rediscovering human connection after an unthinkable tragedy.
If you'd like to watch ahead for next week's film, we will be discussing and reviewing Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's\\xa0The Small Back Room\\xa0(1949).
