Les Jeux de société

Cut into six parts, this film Rohmer gives us the opportunity to discover a foultitude of pledges to be made between friends (the famous kiss to the Capucine or that of hare that, not dog , I give you pictures), hairy anecdotes on the Colin Maillard with small children, verbal exercises of high fly such as I love my lover by A. where you have to fiddle the brain to find words ... In "a", the game of the Fly where poor Alexandra Stewart finds herself surrounded by actors whom Rohmer had to find in a retirement home, the game of Kings and Queens adapted from the unavoidable Game of Robin and Marion d ' Adam de la Halle, who should bring back good memories to friend Gols (I, who in my time was a demi-god in old French, I had to poke a word out of twelve ... everything is lost, by God ) Or the mega bamboche charades game with a Pascal Greggory under acid

Ja, so ein Mann bin ich!

It all begins with a crazy idea. Peter Schönfeld, a good husband whose excess of virtue already seems suspicious, is to be subjected to a fidelity test. Rosemarie, Peter's wife Regina's best friend, wants to dissuade the straw widower from the path of virtue with all kinds of tricks and erotic finesse. This leads to all kinds of confusion and mix-ups, to which Uncle Ewald, whose motto is "If you have worries, you need a liqueur", and his daughter Gisela, the "model", as well as Peter's neighbor, the amateur nude photographer Konrad Förster, intentionally and unintentionally contribute. So it will be interesting to see whether the "hero" of the play, Peter Schönfeld, can still say at the end: "Yes, that's the kind of man I am!".

When a typical English mansion is sold, it turns out that an American ambassador is buying the castle with an unusual inhabitant - a 15th-century ancestral ghost, the husband of the original owner, Eleanor de Canterville. The ghost is serving a sentence for a violent act committed against his own wife. And only romantic love, in this case a poetic young man's love for Virginia, the ambassador's daughter, will free the ghost from the curse and the castle from the ghost.

Endgame

A performance of Samuel Beckett's 'Endgame', a play in which nothing happens, once - unlike Beckett's first play 'Waiting for Godot' in which nothing happens twice. It is not a play about chess, in any explicit sense, but it does feature a lovable if curmudgeonly old man in a dustbin. Generally accepted to be Beckett's bleakest play - indeed after it's 1957 English debut at the Royal Court, the TLS's Olivier Todd quipped that it made Waiting for Godot look like "a cheerful operetta". However, Beckett himself described it as "the favourite of my plays." Although the programme was not broadcast until 1991 it was recorded in 1989 prior to Beckett's death and had his blessing. This production is particularly notable as it is first full-length television performance of the play.
