A bored young man meets with his former girlfriend, now a cabaret dancer and single mother, and soon finds himself falling back in love with her.
Jacques Demy’s Lola is French romance with a bittersweet edge – all chance meetings, missed timing, and lingering feelings. Anouk Aimée is magnetic in the title role, bringing warmth and mystery to a character you can’t quite forget. Stylish, wistful, and quietly devastating in the best way, it’s a film that rewards the big screen – where the atmosphere and emotion really settle in! -TORONTO FILM SOCIETY
