FREAKS VOLUME 5
Canada Post Strike
Feel the existential dread of THE FIRE WITHIN, a classic French masterpiece from Elevator to the Gallows (1958) director Louis Malle and star Maurice Ronet and Winner of the Special Jury Prize at Venice Film Festival.
Regarded as Louis Malle’s best work, THE FIRE WITHIN (LE FEU FOLLET) is a triumph of quiet style.
A penetrating, dark, yet often compassionate study of a man with one foot in the grave, and a searing commentary of modern society as Malle saw it.
Depressed Alain Leroy leaves the clinic where he was detoxified for alcoholism. He meets friends, acquaintances and women, trying to find a reason to continue living. Will this help him?
