Tuesday 1/27 5-6
There is no need to sign up, you can come whenever during the time slot and leave as soon as you’ve finished.
Questions? Can’t make these times but still want to audition? Email Laura at lhess[at]wesleyan[dot]edu.

Monday, January 26th, 4:00pm – 6:00pm

1960. France. Dir: Louis Malle. With Catherine Demongeot. 89 min.
A young girl is left in the custody of her uncle for a weekend, but he soon loses her to the beckoning streets and subways of Paris. This is Malle at his most uninhibited, using the city as a playground for visual experimentation, exemplifying a distinctly 1960’s excitement for the uncharted possibilities of the film medium.
Tonight / 8 p.m. / Goldsmith Family Cinema / Free
