Synopsis
Le Train (The Last Train, 1973) — watch online on iFILM, a French wartime drama directed by Pierre Granier-Deferre, starring Jean-Louis Trintignant and Romy Schneider. Summer 1940: German troops are crossing into France and the roads are choked with people running. Julien is separated from his family and climbs into a freight car.
Anna is already there — a young German-Jewish woman for whom getting caught means something different than it does for everyone else. One night in a moving train is enough to change two lives. Trintignant brings his usual quiet precision; Schneider makes you feel exactly what Anna has to lose. Years later, a Gestapo interrogation will bring them back together. Less a war film than a study of what war strips from people before it finishes them off. Stream Le Train online on iFILM.
