French Film Noir - D French Film Noir - Diva (1981)
Tuesday, May 28, 7 p.m.

Enjoy your warm and bright spring evenings with cool and dark French Film Noir.  This is your opportunity to take the plunge into the French underworld, but from the safe comfort of your library seat.

An award winning pop film inspired by opera, Diva is noted for its intense colors and lighting effects. .  In this movie, two tapes, two Parisian mobsters, a corrupt policeman, an opera fan, a teen-aged thief, and the coolest philosopher ever filmed make for an intricate and stylistic French thriller.  Film critic Roger Ebert declared, “The movie is filled with so many small character touches, so many perfectly observed intimacies, so many visual inventions—from the sly to the grand—that the thriller plot is just a bonus.” Directed by Jean-Jacques Beineix and starring Wilhelmeia Fernandez, Frédérick André and Richard Bohringer, it played in French theaters for over a year
