In Resnais’s “landmark film” (per Dave Kehr), exiled, aging revolutionary Yves Montand grapples with feelings of personal and political inadequacy, moving restlessly between countries and women. Bujold, in one of her first roles, shines as the carefree student who gives Montand a new lease on life, while Bergman regular Ingrid Thulin represents the possibility of stability.
