SAT APR 29, 2023 1:00 PM QUERELLE $8.00 (member) ; $13.00 (general admission) Los Feliz 3 | ‘Jeanne Moreau: An American Cinematheque Retrospective’ Tickets are no longer on sale for this event.
ABOUT THE FILM: In Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s final film, grizzled sailor Georges Querelle (Brad Davis) arrives at La Feria, a pleasure palace run by Madame Lysiane (Jeanne Moreau). The questionable cast of characters there soon pulls Querelle into a web of drugs, sadism, and sexual symbology that threaten to keep him landlocked forever. QUERELLE reimagines Jean Genet’s 1947 novel with brilliant color and fantastical set pieces, not to mention an updated set of gender politics and power dynamics marking Fassbinder’s signature worldview.
