Krzysztof Kieślowski closes his Three Colors trilogy in grand fashion, with an incandescent meditation on fate and chance, starring Irène Jacob as a sweet-souled yet somber runway model in Geneva whose life dramatically intersects with that of a bitter retired judge, played by JeanLouis Trintignant. Meanwhile, just down the street, a seemingly unrelated story of jealousy and betrayal unfolds. 

Red is an intimate look at forged connections and a splendid final statement from a remarkable filmmaker at the height of his powers. 1994, France/Switzerland/Poland, 4K DCP, in French with English subtitles, 99 minutes. Rated R.
