Part of Romy Schneider Tribute Tue 24 Nov at 8.40pm Cine Lumiere 17 Queensberry Place LONDON SW7 2DT Tickets: £9 Box office: 020 7073 1350 L’important c’est d’aimer dir. Andrzej Żuławski, with Romy Schneider, Fabio Testi, Jacques Dutronc, Klaus KinskiIn a César-winning role that shows Schneider at her most vulnerable and fragile, but also at her most angry and cynical, she plays a world-weary actress amidst a crowd of desperate artists, freaks, and gangsters. Bound to her escapist husband, she resists the love of a melancholy photographer who secretly pays a large sum of money to get her into a proper, yet ill-fated stage play. Zulawski’s first film outside Poland is a fierce, cacophonous, but also tender melodrama, which also stars Klaus Kinski in one of his best performances.
