Le Bal (1982)

If you would like to view a remarkable "foreign" film but can't put up with either subtitles or dubbing, then this Italian-French production is the one for you since it has no dialogue whatsoever. It is set in a dance hall in the present but then segues back to the same location during various points in French history -- pre-World War II, the occupation, the post war period and the revolution of 1968.  The ensemble cast assumes different roles for each period and the action is played out through the music and the dance. My only criticism is that it is a little on the long side, but it is such an unusual movie and so well done that this is a minor quibble.
