In 35mm! We don’t need to describe the plot of THE DREAMERS; you still have access to your old Tumblr account, you get the appeal. A naive, pillow-lipped American student (Michael Pitt) encounters Eva Green and a mop-topped Louis Garrel, the children of an esteemed intellectual at odds with their father’s old school perspective. Escaping into a cinephile fantasy in the siblings’ Paris apartment for a little “ooh la la,” the trio sequester themselves from the reality of the streets and the ringing chants of May ’68 protesters. French with a capital “F,” this ménage à trois gets a big “oui” from us.
