The film to be screened at Alliance Francaise de Kotte at 6.00 pm on 25 March is L’homme du train.
A mysterious stranger, Milan steps off a train in a place he has never been before. Looking for a pharmacy to buy some aspirin, he comes across a retired teacher.
The two men are complete opposites or at least seem to be. But each man realizes that what he really wanted is the life of the other man. This emotional relationship between two heterosexual men is such a difficult and unusual thing to dramatize – but Leconte brings it off with delicacy and persuasive charm.
Directed by Patrice Leconte this movie is 86 minutes. The 2002 film stars Johnny Hallyday and Jean Rochefort.
This screening is free of charge and open to the public at the AF de Kotte at 139 Jawatte Road, Colombo 05.
