TELERAMA
André Laurent, captain of the tugboat Cyclone, attends the wedding of one of his sailors with his crew before being urgently called to rescue the passengers of a cargo ship, including Catherine, the captain's wife. While his wife Yvonne hides her illness from him and begs him to retire, André falls madly in love with Catherine, with whom he begins an affair...
A timeless masterpiece of the seventh art with a screenplay and dialogue by Jacques Prévert, Remorques brings together the legendary couple from Quai des brumes , Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan. A filmmaker who loves the sea and comes from documentary, Jean Grémillon ( Gueule d'amour , Lumière d'été ) is the brilliant master of this symphony of feelings swept away by the forces of nature. The incredible shooting of this film, initiated in July 1939 and carried out at full speed until September 1941 under the Occupation, completed its legend. A splendid sea poem, Remorques is available for the first time on Blu-ray™ in its sumptuous 4K restoration!
