This boldly cinematic trio of stories about love and loss, from Krzysztof Kie\u015blowski was a defining event of the art-house boom of the 1990s. The films are named for the colors of the French flag and stand for the tenets of the French Revolution\u2014liberty, equality, and fraternity\u2014but that hardly begins to explain their enigmatic beauty and rich humanity. Set in Paris, Warsaw, and Geneva, and ranging from tragedy to comedy, Blue, White,<\/i> and Red<\/i> (Kie\u015blowski\u2019s final film) examine with artistic clarity a group of ambiguously interconnected people experiencing profound personal disruptions. Marked by intoxicating cinematography and stirring performances by such actors as Juliette Binoche, Julie Delpy, Ir\u00e8ne Jacob, and Jean-Louis Trintignant, Kie\u015blowski\u2019s Three Colors is a benchmark of contemporary cinema<\/p>\n
In the devastating first film of the Three Colors trilogy, Juliette Binoche gives a tour de force performance as Julie, a woman reeling from the tragic death of her husband and young daughter. But Blue<\/i> is more than just a blistering study of grief; it\u2019s also a tale of liberation, as Julie attempts to free herself from the past while confronting truths about the life of her late husband, a composer. Shot in sapphire tones by S\u0142awomir Idziak, and set to an extraordinary operatic score by Zbigniew Preisner, Blue<\/i> is an overwhelming sensory experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
