Nominated for three Academy Awards (Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, and Best Director), Kieślowski’s magnificent final feature, an astonishing affirmation of life and art, brings his Three Colors trilogy to its conclusion. Red concerns the unlikely meeting between the beautiful model Valentine (Irène Jacob) and a retired judge (Jean-Louis Trintignant), whose dog she has run over with her car. The judge, she discovers, amuses himself by eavesdropping on each of his neighbors’ phone conversations. Meanwhile, near Valentine’s apartment lives a young man (Jean-Pierre Lorit) who aspires to be a judge and loves a woman who will betray him. From these characters’ overlapping interactions, Kieślowski builds to a staggering coincidence, presented in the film’s final minutes, that casts the entire trilogy in a new light. An NYFF32 selection. New 4K restoration under the supervision of Directors of Photography Piotr Sobocinski Jr. and Michal Sobocinski, sons of original Director of Photography Piotr Sobocinski. A Janus Films release.
