DESCRIPTION:

One of the all-time great comedy classics, René Clair's À Nous la Liberté is a skillful satire of the industrial revolution and the blind quest for wealth. Deftly integrating his signature musical-comedy technique with pointed social criticism, Clair tells the story of an escaped convict who becomes a wealthy industrialist. Unfortunately his past returns to upset his carefully laid plans. Featuring lighthearted wit, tremendous visual innovation, and masterful manipulation of sound, À Nous la Liberté is both a potent indictment of mechanized modern society and an uproarious comic delight.

Special Features:

  • New digital transfer
  • Deleted scenes
  • Entr'acte (1924), the short Surrealist masterpiece by Clair and artist Francis Picabia
  • Video interview with Madame Bronja Clair
  • Film historian David Robinson on the Tobis lawsuit against Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times
