Event Description
An atmospheric story of the romantic trials of a tugboat captain, played by the iconic French star Jean Gabin, a man of courage and duty who leads a hard life. Both for him and other members of the boat’s crew, existence is sharply divided between the jeopardy of the stormy seas and the safety of life at home with their patient women. When Gabin’s character André meets temptation in the form of the alluring Catherine during a risky rescue, he comes perilously close to betraying his wife of ten years.
Described as a timeless masterpiece, Remorques reunites the legendary couple from the pre-war classic Quai des Brumes, Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan. Director Jean Grémillon was a filmmaker with a love of the sea and experience in documentary film-making, and here he uses beautiful tracking shots and compelling special-effect works to depict emotions swept away by the forces of nature.
