SUMMARY:19th Annual Festival of Films in French
DESCRIPTION:Verdun: Visions d’histoire \nTuesday February 16 • 7pm \nLéon Poirier\, DVD\, 151 min\, France\, 1927 (Silent) \nVerdun visions\nThis screening of Poirier’s epic silent film coincides almost exactly with the hundredth anniversary of the start of this horrendous World War I battle. Filming began on the tenth anniversary of Verdun using many war veterans as actors (including Marshall Pétain who plays himself!) and combining documentary footage with meticulously staged reenactments. Its pacifist message is delivered through a realistic chronicling of the terrible human toll taken by ten long months of fighting. With musical accompaniment by Renato Umali. \nCo-sponsored by the Alliance Française of Milwaukee. \n
