On behalf of Sundance Selects, you and a guest are invited to a screening of SOMETHING IN THE AIR, the newest film by French filmmaker Olivier Assayas. Following his critical triumphs, SUMMER HOURS and CARLOS, Assayas' semi-autobiographical new feature is a vibrant, incisively crafted story of a young man's artistic awakening in the politically turbulent French student movement of the early '70s. In a nod to his earlier film COLD WATER, Assayas' surrogate Gilles (newcomer Clement Metayer) is a graduating high school student in Paris deeply involved in the counterculture of the time. While Gilles begins to realize that his interests lie more in the revolutions in music and art, he finds himself pulled into ever more dangerous political protests by the people around him, especially his radicalized girlfriend (Lola Créton of GOODBYE FIRST LOVE). Illuminating and elegiac, Assayas' story celebrates that thrilling, evanescent moment in history when young people could feel revolution just within their grasp.Movie Title : Something in the Air

Review For Movie Something in the Air
A wispy picture, likeable certainly but lacking in crispness and clarity.Rick Groen-Globe and Mail
Assayas captures a season in the lives of a group that envisioned themselves as bearers of truth ...
Linda Barnard-Toronto Star
Free of nostalgia and not overly critical in hindsight, it captures the immediacy of youth in hugely endearing fashion.
Dave Calhoun-Time Out
Every kid believes the world around him is changing in ways it hasn't before; for these kids, it really was. Or had.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
The pretty actors and counterculture nostalgia kept reminding me of Bernardo Bertolucci's The Dreamers. This is a much better film, infused with Assayas's characteristic love for the freshness of nature and the eagerness of youth.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
Worth seeing for what it says of the turbulent state of France in the early 1970s, when Mr. Assayas was a high-school student in Paris ...
Joe Morgenstern-Wall Street Journal
Revolution is less an action with direct purpose than a way of life in Olivier Assayas' heady, conflicted ode to the anarchic spirit of May 1968.
Chris Barsanti-PopMatters
Something in the Air is not a film for all tastes, but it brings back a crucial part of the last century, touches on experiences we've all had at some time and is performed with delicacy, sincerity and conviction by a splendid young cast.
Philip French-Observer [UK]
Assayas films it with a kinetic camera that follows his young protagonists through halls and stairways as they look for themselves. It's an assured film about rocky beginnings.
Jay Stone-Canada.com
This sharply well-made French drama tackles an offbeat chapter in history with real skill, although the densely populated screenplay and fragmented approach to storytelling makes it difficult to engage with.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
What ultimately makes this film stand out is the way it captures the painful dawning experienced by all human beings that neither youth - nor you - are eternal.
Rebecca Davies-Film4
It treats the characters with respect and a tender regard for an idealism that maturity seems unlikely to sustain.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express
A coming-of-age drama which boasts delicious camerawork, a perfect soundtrack and fascinating insights into the importance of cinema. It's desultory to a fault.
Charlotte O'Sullivan-This is London
The hectic theories that have spiritual and erotic dominion over these young people and compel an elaborate network of secret meetings feel astonishingly inert.
Antonia Quirke-Financial Times
The tumbling, seemingly aimless narrative ... gives it the unmistakable feel of what the French call a film à clef.
-Daily Telegraph
This might just be Assayas' masterpiece.
Wally Hammond-Little White Lies
The ideas get lost in the nostalgic, elegaic glow, but that glow is nurtured expertly.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
It's essentially a series of black-out scenes tracing the lives of young activists who grow and change before our eyes. And while filmmaker Assayas and his fine cast convey that beautifully, they never properly engage us.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
A nostalgic and thought-provoking coming-of-age drama with a terrific soundtrack to boot, though some may find the relative lack of plot frustrating.
Matthew Turner-ViewLondon
Something in the Air is somewhat too ambitious within its aims, fitting too much in to its two hour running time.
Craig Skinner-HeyUGuys
The characters exist more as poster children than fully formed individuals, but somehow that seems beside the point.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
A pitch-perfect period setting can't compensate for the presence of the lithe but terminally listless leads.
Kate Stables-Total Film
