   Synopsis"One of the decades best!It's rare that a film so pictorially gorgeous is so tender, wise and humane."-Jay Carr, Boston Globe

Alive with the subtle brush strokes of an artist at the top of his form, Bertrand Tavernier's acclaimed A Sunday In The Country is a lovingly photographed and exquisitely acted portrait of French family life on the brink of World War I.

Monsieur Ladmiral (Louis Ducreux), an Impressionist painter by trade, awakens happily one Sunday to meet his son's family for their weekly visit to his Parisian countryside home.Before long, however, a sense of sadness and regret infect the day.Ladmiral is a widower in his twilight years, and the push of time is beginning to strain family relations.Though son Gonzague (Michel Aumont) provides stability and grandchildren, it is daughter Irene who inspires the old man in his meditations about life.Unexpectedly, Irene (Sabine Azema) arrves at the gathering in her fast new car.By the time the afternoon is over, her vibrant spirit shakes the family to its core
