A Man and a Woman

The most efficacious make-out movie.

In Claude Lelouch’s swooning romance, widower Jean-Louis and widow Anne meet at their children’s school, and a complicated love affair begins.

Shot in both black and white and colour, and featuring music by Francis Lai (you’ll recognise it instantly), “A Man and a Woman” won the Palme d’Or at Cannes, the Academy Award for Best International Film, and was a global hit.
