New print! Named ​“the greatest film of all time” in the latest Sight & Sound critics’ poll, JEANNE DIELMAN is ​“an unflinching portrait of the mundanity of middle-aged womanhood” (Roxana Hadadi) that’s ​“as courageously experimental as anything produced in the history of the avant garde” (David Parkinson). Delphine Seyrig stars in the title role, as a widowed housewife whose predictable routine starts to shatter. In French with English subtitles. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.

The ​“French 75” series features a trio of Francophone films marking their 50th anniversaries.
