This week, The Break is back! On this episode of The Criterion Break, we briefly chat about two recent Criterion titles that played the State Theatre in Sioux Falls, Fantastic Planet and My Own Private Idaho. We then dive into this week’s feature as we take a look at two musicals from the mind of French filmmaker, Jacques Demy. First on the list, the pastel melancholy of The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, followed by the candy-coated confection that is The Young Girls of Rochefort. Find out just how dazzled we were by these incredible films!
