THE CLASSIC: LAST TANGO IN PARIS (Un film de BERNARDO BERTOLUCCI)
Bernardo Bertolucci’s Last Tango in Paris caused controversy upon its initial release in 1972, seeing it banned in numerous countries, receiving an X rating in the United States, and the director going on trial for obscenity in Italy. Despite this, the film received Oscar nominations for Best Picture and Best Actor. More than forty years later, Last Tango in Paris is iconic; a classic that shows the palpable loneliness of two strangers trying to connect, and feel alive, only through anonymous sexual encounters. Their clandestine meeting occurs when they view the same Parisian apartment that’s for rent. There, Paul (Marlon Brando), an American businessman reeling from the suicide of his wife, convinces Jeanne (Maria Schneider), a young affianced French woman, to embark on a strictly physical relationship in that apartment without knowing each other’s name or life story. Needless to say, it doesn’t end well.
Part of the 2016 Nitehawk Naughties OOH LA LA program in partnership with Babeland.
