The Last Minute Eric Rohmer Symposium / by Nathan Douglas

On March 21, I had the pleasure of co-hosting a last minute Zoom symposium in honour of Eric Rohmer on what would have been his 100th birthday.

Rohmer fans and cinephiles from around the world were joined by two very special guests: Marie Rivière, star of The Aviator’s Wife, The Green Ray, and Autumn Tale, and Mary Stephen, editor of every Rohmer feature from A Tale of Winter to The Romance of Astrea and Celadon.

We spoke with Ms. Rivière and Ms. Stephen for 2 hours. My thanks to Dan Sallitt for helping to co-facilitate our discussion. A 30 minute post-symposium discussion can be viewed here.
