When they see each other, they run into each other's arms and embrace. After dropping their children off at the boarding school, Jean-Louis and Anne drive into town where they rent a room and begin to make love with passionate tenderness. While they are in each other's arms, however, Jean-Louis senses that something is not right.

Anne's memories of her deceased husband are still with her and she feels uncomfortable continuing. Anne says it would be best for her to take the train back to Paris alone. After dropping her off at the station, Jean-Louis drives home alone, unable to understand her feelings. On the train Anne can only think of Jean-Louis and their time together. Meanwhile, Jean-Louis drives south through the French countryside to the Paris train station, just as her train is arriving.

As she leaves the train, she spots Jean-Louis and is surprised, hesitates briefly, and then walks toward him and they embrace. According to director Claude Lelouch , the story originated from an experience following his disappointment trying to get a distribution deal for his film Les Grands Moments. As was his habit during troubling times, he went for a long drive and ended up on the shore at Deauville at am. After a few hours sleep in the car, he was awakened by the sunrise and saw a woman walking on the beach with her daughter and a dog.

This sparked his creativity which led to the story and script which he co-wrote with Pierre Uytterhoeven within a month. A key casting decision for Lelouch was Jean-Louis Trintignant. I think Jean-Louis is the actor who taught me how to direct actors. We really brought each other a lot. He changed his method of acting while working with me, and I began to truly understand what directing actors was all about, working with him.

I think the relationship between a director and actor is the same relationship as in a love story between two people. One cannot direct an actor if you do not love him or her. And he cannot be good if he or she does not love you in turn. Trintignant happened to be a close friend of hers and told him to call her. When he did, she accepted without reading the script. Although early disagreements and the low-budget skeleton crew caused initial tension between the director and actress, they quickly resolved their differences and the two went on to become close friends. Once the script was drafted, the film was made relatively quickly, with one month of preproduction work, three weeks of principal photography, and three weeks editing.

Lelouch is considered a pioneer in mixing different film stocks: black-and-white with color, and 35mm with 16mm and super 8. For years film critics debated the symbolism of the mixed film stocks, but Lelouch acknowledged that the primary reason was that he was running out of money, and black and white stock was cheaper. The music soundtrack was recorded prior to filming, and Lelouch would play the music on the set to inspire the actors.

The film was shot, among others, in Paris , Monte Carlo and Deauville. Info by the Dizionario del Turismo Cinematografico. Upon its theatrical release in the United States, A Man and a Woman received mostly positive reviews. In his review in The New York Times , Bosley Crowther wrote, "For a first-rate demonstration of the artfulness of a cameraman and the skill at putting together handsome pictures and a strongly sentimental musical score, there is nothing around any better than Claude Lelouch's A Man and a Woman.

The review in Variety noted the performances of the lead actors: "Anouk Aimee has a mature beauty and an ability to project an inner quality that helps stave off the obvious banality of her character, and this goes too for the perceptive Jean-Louis Trintignant as the man. The film was selected for screening as part of the Cannes Classics section at the Cannes Film Festival.

Pierre Barouh , who plays the deceased husband in the film, also sings the songs in the soundtrack. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about the French film.

A Man and A Woman

There is the bright red Mustang, in which Jean-Louis Trintignant alias Jean-Louis Duroc, a racing car driver, defies space, time and inclement weather to speed across France to the beach resort and into the arms of his new flame, Anne Gauthier, a script girl played by Anouk Aimee. There is the sensual, touching, awkward scene in the Deauville hotel room, when Anne repulses Jean-Louis because she has not yet come to grips with her husband's death a year earlier. There is the ostensibly happy ending: Jean-Louis, initially stunned by her rejection, races Anne's train back to Paris in his Mustang to meet her at the station.

Scooping her up in his arms, the two lovers whirl around the train platform to the strains of the song that became even more famous than the film, a theme song of a generation. But now, 20 years later, a new moviegoing generation is being told it didn't end happily after all. It became increasingly obvious to me as the years passed. Sequel Opening in New York. This, he said, was one of the insights that prompted him to do a sequel to the film, ''A Man and a Woman: 20 Years Later.

The commercial fate of the sequel depends on its reception in New York, for the film has flopped in Paris.

Stay in the Know

Variety reports that only , Parisians even went to see it, whereas , is average attendance for a successful movie. Lelouch and Warner Brothers, which is releasing the film, anticipate that the sequel will do better in America than in France, because although the original was a success here, it was a blockbuster in America. Lelouch believes that the French didn't like the movie because it is, as he says, a very ''French'' film. Another possible explanation, he said, is that nostalgia is no longer popular, at least in France.

A recent opinion and marketing survey in Los Angeles showed an intriguing fact: the film was better liked by young people who had never seen the original than by older audiences. Lelouch had expected the opposite. A third explanation, one offered by several French reviewers, is that Mr. Lelouch has failed to offer any new ideas in the sequel, that the film, though technically and visually accomplished, explores only superficially its potentially rich theme: the rekindling of a lost love 20 years later.

He is fascinated.

Two Lovers Meet Again. The sequel picks up the trail of the lives of his two lovers, played once again by Mr. Trintignant and Miss Aimee. In the interim, Anne has married, divorced and become a film producer. Jean-Louis has retired and is organizing races for others.

What makes you a man or a woman

He is involved with a very young woman more than 20 years his junior. She decides that her next film should be about her old romance with Jean-Louis and visits him to seek his consent. The flame between them is revived as they watch their love story being filmed. But Anne does not complete the film.

Instead, she starts to film a romantic musical, which is also abandoned in favor of a thriller based on a real-life murder in the movie in Paris. The subplots are clever, but distracts from the main plot of the film, which explores with sympathy and understatement the renewal of a love between two people who have learned much about themselves and life since they last met. Because of this knowledge, Anne and Jean-Louis really do fall in love this time, but it is a gentler, more certain emotion that persuades the audience it can last.
