Gérard Depardieu and Catherine Deneuve star as members of a French theatre company living under German occupation during World War II in Francois Truffaut's gripping, humanist character study. Against all odds—a Jewish theatre manager in hiding, an actor who is in the Resistance, increasingly restrictive Nazi oversight—the troupe believes the show must go on. Equal parts romance, historical tragedy, and even comedy, "The Last Metro" is Truffaut's ultimate tribute to art overcoming adversity. (Gary Reber)
