This double feature showcases Malle's worldliness and feel for complex characters, pairing Les Amants, a frankly erotic drama starring Jeanne Moreau, with Le feu follet, about a recovering alcoholic's last days.

Second feature start time: 8:40 pm. Jeanne Moreau shot to international stardom in Malle's second feature, Les amants, about a women who leaves her husband for a younger man. The film would later become the centerpiece of the celebrated 1964 legal case of Jacobellis v. Ohio, in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Cleveland Heights theater owner that the film was not "obscene" and therefore constitutionally protected. (88 mins.)

Tonight's second feature is Malle's Le feu follet. A delicately yet deeply resonant study scored to Satie, the film follows a man's last days as he attempts to reconnect to his old life after being treated for alcoholism. Adapted from the novel by Pierre Drieu La Rochelle (107 mins.)
