Eric Rohmer’s Tales of the Four Seasons released in the Criterion Collection on February 13th, 2024.
Just in time for Valentine’s Day, the Criterion Collection has compiled and released another collection of romantic classics. I already owned the beautifully packaged set of Richard Linklater’s Before Trilogy, and Rohmer’s quartet of films exploring the ups and downs of friendship and romance makes for a perfect companion piece. It’s wonderfully packaged with cover art that accurately captures the simplicity and beauty of the films themselves. With a price-tag of roughly $125, you’re getting each of these films, newly restored, four around thirty-one-dollars a piece.

Streaming now in various virtual cinemas in new restorations, Éric Rohmer’s “Tales of the Four Seasons,” the last of his three major film cycles, offers a fresh chance to consider the methods of one of cinema’s most quietly perceptive artists. Compared to his “Six Moral Tales” and “Comedies and Proverbs,” films that probed the strident yet misplaced confidence of young people as they attempt to find their place in the world, the “Tales of the Four Seasons” found Rohmer—70 years old the year that the first film in the series, 1990’s A Tale of Springtime, premiered—turning his attentions to middle-aged characters.
