Wege im Zwielicht / Paths in Twilight / Way in the twilight (1948) DVD9

Three young war veterans get involved in a murder on the black market in Hanover and fled to the countryside. Only in the village of Mayor Luke they find refuge. Luke takes care of the young men and offers them the opportunity to prove themselves useful by letting them build the much needed bridge for the village.

Way in the twilight is a German drama from 1948. It's about the controversial topic of homelessness and rootlessness in the hard times of postwar Germany. Not only the economic hardship is identified, and the personal stories - the mental deficits of the people, the question of guilt - can be accommodated. This begs the question: How far is how far it can be ordered by the morality in a country shortly after the defeat at the end of a long war?

Un dimanche a la campagne / A Sunday in the Country (1984) DVD9

1910, a French country house in high summer. A well-honoured painter is at the end of his working life. As usual, he invites his son, son's family, and his single daughter to visit him, and in the span of one hot day, Tavernier encompasses not only the happiness and sorrows of family life, but also subtler side-comments on life, art and the relation of one to the other. For the painter has lived through the Impressionist revolution, but preferred to hoe his own quiet furrow, away from what he admired but could not connect with. The statement is brave, for it aligns with Tavernier's own position as the leader of the mainstream in France. A mention of Renoir is no accident: the film once more returns to the solid decency and the hedonism of both Renoir pere (painter) and fils (film-maker). Tavernier still shoots in a fluid transatlantic/classic style, but his forte is those fleeting moments that are happy until destroyed by reflection.
