When he meets a student involved in terrorist activities, it re-ignites the flame of fight until he meets catastrophe. This film is an exciting example of the French New Wave from the director of LAST YEAR AT MARIENBAD, and starring Bergman favorite Ingrid Thulin. [More]

[DVD Details]
 
 
  • For some soldiers, the war is never over... Legendary "New Wave" director Alain Resnais (Last Year at Marienbad) helms this emotionally-charged suspense-drama set in France and on the streets of fascist Spain, starring European film icon Yves Montand (Jean de Florette), a young Genevieve Bujold (Coma) in one of her first screen appearances, and the radiant Ingrid Thulin (Wild Strawberries). Montand is an aging revolutionary learning to accept that the fight for freedom should be passed to younger hands until a chance encounter with a student terrorist revives his militant passions, but catastrophe stalks Montand on his unswerving path to his last mission and a fateful choice.

    It does remain tense throughout.

    Not Resnais' greatest effort, but a provocative portrait of political rebels and a challenging anti-war film just the same.

    La Guerre Est Finie is a drama above political prejudices. It is a powerful study of a man's commitment to a consuming and bewildering belief.

    He unexpectedly gives us not only psychology but an exciting thriller, done with great artistry.
