The seasons may change, but the follies of the heart are constant in this ineffably lovely quartet of films by Eric Rohmer, one of cinema’s most perceptive chroniclers of the pangs and perils of romance. Set throughout France, Tales of the Four Seasons is a cycle to stand alongside the director’s two earlier acclaimed film series, Six Moral Tales and Comedies and Proverbs. By turns comic and melancholic, breezy and richly philosophical, these bittersweet tales of love, longing, and the inevitable misunderstandings that shape human relationships probe the most complex of emotions with the utmost grace.

Release Notes on Restoration
The new digital masters presented here were created at Digimage, in Paris - from the 35 mm original camera negatives for A Tale of Springtime, A Tale of Summer, and A Tale of Autumn and from the 16 mm original camera negative for A Tale of Winter - and restored in 2K resolution. The original monaural soundtracks were remastered from the magnetic tracks.
