New 4K Restoration Screening January 2–9, 2025An angelically beautiful Catherine Deneuve was launched to stardom by this dazzling musical heart-tugger from Jacques Demy. She plays an umbrella-shop owner’s delicate daughter, glowing with first love for a handsome garage mechanic, played by Nino Castelnuovo. When the boy is shipped off to fight in Algeria, the two lovers must grow up quickly. Exquisitely designed in a kaleidoscope of colors, and told entirely through the lilting songs of the great composer Michel Legrand, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is one of the most revered and unorthodox movie musicals of all time.
Restored by Ciné-Tamaris by Éclair Classics and L.E. Diapason labs, Paris. Supervised by Rosalie Varda & Mathieu Demy. With support from the CNC, CHANEL, & SACEM
