The Essential Eric Rohmer Collection (4 DVD)

This 4-disc set spans the breadth of Rohmer s remarkable filmmaking career, which remained fresh, vital and inventive until the very end. All the films included display Rohmer s trademark intelligence and wit, and maintain a remarkably consistent quality, from his debut feature The Sign of Leo (one of the first films of the French New Wave), to romantic comedy Rendez-vous in Paris , espionage thriller Triple Agent , and his final, extraordinary film The Romance of Astrea and Celadon .
