		Seyrig's former husband, the painter Jack Youngerman, and their son Duncan Youngerman will introduce Muriel (1963), the program's opening night screening, and director Harry Kümel will be present to introduce two screenings of Les lèvres rouges (Daughters of Darkness) (1971), including a special Halloween presentation of the vampire classic.
		Seyrig (1932-1990), one of France's most acclaimed and beloved actresses, emerged during the explosion of activity and genres that characterized European cinema in the 1960s and early 1970s.
		This latter part of Seyrig's career was characterized by her quest to bring new, challenging, and complex images of women to the screen, which paralleled her outspoken feminist views.

		French actress Delphine Seyrig lent her magnetizing screen presence to the most challenging works of post-war European cinema.
		Seyrig's talent for combining empathy and aloofness was perfectly suited to a film culture where characters remain largely opaque to one another.
		Seyrig plays a widowed antique dealer whose reunion with a former beau is complicated by the presence of both her unstable stepson and the old flame's new young lover.

	Daughters of Darkness Review (1971) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		There's more than a touch of Seyrig's beloved Marienbad at play here, though the beauty of a wintry Ostend (the film was shot during a chilly June/July) is close to the terrain captured in Nic Roeg's Don't Look Now.
		Seyrig is excellent as her cruel employer, using her powers to manipulate Stefan and his wife en route to a couple of death scenes that pay homage to traditional vampire lore - water, sunlight and stakes.
		Without the wonderfully poetic dialogue, the senses are firmly fixed on the sumptuous sets and four brilliantly tuned performances: magical exterior scenes and action/reaction shots all come over stronger than ever as a series of paintings, whether in the artificial light of the hotel or the dusk and darkness of the world outside.

	Delphine Seyrig
		Born Delphine Claire Belriane Seyrig in Beirut, Lebanon, she was the daughter of an archeologist and the brother of composer Francis Seyrig.

		Art-movie goddess Delphine Seyrig (Last Year at Marienbad) slinks through the plush Eurotrash settings as the deathless Elizabeth Bathory, Vampire Countess, in Harry Kümel's minor Dutch classic of lesbian erotic-gothic.

		Seyrig is a fortyish widow dealing antique furniture from her apartment, who invites an old flame she hasn't seen since the Algerian war to visit her and her troubled eccentric filmmaker stepson (Thierre), whom she shares an apartment with in Boulogne (a city in the provinces).
		We know that Seyrig tries to rekindle her ordinary life by renewing memories of her first love, but finds that it's to someone who has turned out to be an aging Romeo with white hair--not exactly how she remembered him.
		Seyrig and Thierre fail to realize that things change, that memory is altered with time and new realities.

		That is until Countess Elizabeth Bathory (Delphine Seyrig) and her beautiful companion Ilona (Andrea Rau) arrive on the scene in a vintage automobile.
		The lead role of the seductive countess is well played by Delphine Seyrig, and she leads a small but attractive cast of actors who all perform convincingly and are also enjoyable to look at.
		The only thing missing is Delphine Seyrig singing the title theme at the beginning of the movie ("...Don't let the sunlight find you, or you may fade and die.").

	Muriel / 1963 / film review / Alain Resnais / Delphine Seyrig
		Muriel is mainly concerned with two characters - a lonely middle-aged widow, Hélène (magnificently portrayed by Delphine Seyrig), and her traumatised step-son Bernard.
		Both characters live in a present that is strongly influenced by the past and both expend a great deal of time and energy in trying to alter that past.
		Beautifully filmed (this being Resnais’ first colour film) and cleverly scripted by Jean Cayrol (who previously worked with Resnais on his documentary short Nuit et brouillard), Muriel is unquestionably one of the most extraordinary cinematic achievements of the Twentieth Century.

		All of her seeming frustrations (Seyrig's wonderfully stone-faced performance only hints at the upset Jeanne tries to hide) reach a breaking point when the third man arrives for his afternoon delight.
		As he lays panting on the bed post-coitus, Jeanne takes a pair of scissors from her vanity and nonchalantly stabs him in the neck.

		By the mid-1970s, Seyrig had become an active feminist working with directors Marguerite Duras in "India Song" (1975), Chantal Akerman in "Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles" (1975) and Ulrike Ottinger in "Freak Orlando" (1981)....

		Erotic, unusual and extremely violent, Le Rouge aux Levres, also released as Daughters of Darkness is one of the finest vampire films ever produced, making up with style and class what it might have lacked in budget.

		One of the most formally inventive of all feature films, LAST YEAR AT MARIENBAD stretches the limits of film language to the extreme.
		Scripted by Robbe-Grillet, the movie introduces us to four main characters--A (Seyrig), a lovely, well-dressed woman; X (Albertazzi), a handsome stranger; M (Pitoeff), a man who might be A's husband; and a luxurious estate (important enough to be considered a character) with long, sterile hallways and perfectly manicured grounds.
		The "plot", if you can call it one, focuses on X's attempt to convince A that they met, possibly last year, at a resort hotel, perhaps in Marienbad, where she may have promised to run away with him this year.
