$WEDDINGS | Criterion Channel Teaser Watch now on our streaming service, The Criterion Channel! https://www.criterionchannel.com/weddings Not yet subscribed to the Criterion Channel? Sign up now and start a free trial: https://www.criterionchannel.com/checkout/subscribe With wedding season upon us, take a walk down the aisle of some of cinema’s most unforgettable nuptials. Focusing on the lead-up to and spectacle of the big day itself, these films dramatize the often-conflicting dreams, desires, and fears that bring two people together before the altar, with directors like Sofia Coppola (MARIE ANTOINETTE), Jonathan Demme (RACHEL GETTING MARRIED), and Lars von Trier (MELANCHOLIA) examining the emotional ambivalence and intersecting familial expectations surrounding the main event. Replete with will-they-won’t-they romantic tension, simmering family drama, and extravagant mise-en-scène, these films look past the pageantry to reveal the fractures that underpin the promise of “happily ever after.” Featuring: THE UMBRELLAS OF CHERBOURG (Jacques Demy, 1964) WEDDING IN WHITE (William Fruet, 1972) A WEDDING (Robert Altman, 1978) GOLDEN EIGHTIES (Chantal Akerman, 1986) MURIEL’S WEDDING (P. J. Hogan, 1994) MARIE ANTOINETTE (Sofia Coppola, 2006) RACHEL GETTING MARRIED (Jonathan Demme, 2008) MELANCHOLIA (Lars von Trier, 2011)$
