The 14th Annual Robert Classic French Film Festival — sponsored by Jane M. & Bruce P. Robert Charitable Foundation — celebrates St. Louis' Gallic heritage and France's cinematic legacy. This year's featured films span the decades from the 1920s through the 1990s, offering a revealing overview of French cinema.

The fest annually includes significant restorations, and this year features seven such works, including a brand-new restoration of Luis Bunuel's "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie," which is part of our year-long Golden Anniversaries programming, which features films celebrating their 50th anniversaries.
