“His work represents some of the most purely pleasurable filmmaking imaginable -- an inexhaustible storehouse of wit, joy, sensuality and wisdom.” -- Dave Kehr, New York Times
Sacha Guitry has been referred to as the “Gallic Noël Coward”: a celebrated polymath who worked as a stage actor, film actor, director, screenwriter and acclaimed playwright. In partnership with Arrow Films, AGFA presents several of Guitry’s most enjoyable films from the 1930s, each amplifying the versatile talents of this unique performer / artist.
The history of one of France’s most famous streets is retold in ON THE CHAMPS-ÉLYSÉES, featuring multiple performances from Guitry himself.
