3. A Day In The Country (Partie de Campagne) | 1936

This French featurette accounts a love affair over a summer afternoon along the River Seine in 1860. A Day In The Country proves Renoirs talent as he was able to capture a wonderful, in-depth love story in only 40 minutes. This is said to be one of Renoir’s most impressionistic works as it captures beautiful, idyllic nature scenes and contrasts it alongside the harshness of urban society.

4. Le Crime De Monsieur Lange | 1936

Le Crime of Monsieur Lange is based on the life of a clerk at a publishing company who fulfils his dream of writing Western stories when the head of his company fakes his own death. Through Renoir’s naturalistic style The Crime of Monsieur Lange makes social commentary through a romantic and thrilling story line and became strongly linked with the political left wing, so much so that the Communist Party requested Renoir to create propaganda films against fascism.
