DESCRIPTION:03/20 - LOOP Presents: Word of Mouth\n\nThe Rules of the Game (1939)\nA 
 bourgeois life in France at the onset of World War II, as the rich and

 Renoir\nWriters: Jean Renoir (scenario & dialogue), Carl Koch 
 (collaborator)\nStars: Marcel Dalio, Nora Gregor, Paulette Dubost  
 \n\n16mm/110min/B&W/French Language/English Subtitles\n\nRenoir's career in 
 France was at its pinnacle in 1939 and The Rules of the Game was eagerly 
 anticipated. However, its premiere was met with anger and disapproval by 
 film critics and the public. Renoir reduced the film's running time from 
 113 minutes to 85, but even then the film was a critical and financial 
 disaster. In October 1939, it was banned by the wartime French government 
 for "having an undesirable influence over the young".\n\nFor many years, 
 the 85-minute version was the only one available, but despite this its 
 reputation slowly grew. In 1956, boxes of original material were 
 rediscovered and a reconstructed version of the film premiered that year at 
 the Venice Film Festival, with only a minor scene from Renoir's first cut 
 missing. Since then, the film has often been cited as one of the greatest 
 films in the history of cinema. Numerous film critics and directors have 
 praised it and cited it as an inspiration for their own work.\n
