LAST TANGO IN PARIS (1973)

Bernardo Bertolucci directed the sensual drama film Last Tango in Paris in 1972. Marlon Brando, Maria Schneider, and Jean-Pierre Léaud feature in the picture, which tells the story of a newly bereaved American who initiates an anonymous sexual connection with a young Parisian lady.

Marlon Brando plays Paul, a middle-aged American hotel owner who is mourning the death of his wife Rosa. At an apartment that both of them are interested in renting, Paul meets a young, engaged Parisian lady called Jeanne. After they begin an anonymous sexual connection in the flat, Paul steals it. To Jeanne's dismay, he demands that neither of them reveals any personal information, including given names. The affair lasts for a while until Paul chooses to leave Jeanne, at which point she returns to the flat to discover that he has packed his belongings and departed without warning.

Later, Paul runs into Jeanne on the street and expresses his desire to restart their relationship. He informs her about his wife's recent tragedy. They stroll into a tango club as he tells her his life narrative, where he proceeds to tell her about himself. Jeanne feels disillusioned about their connection as a result of the loss of anonymity. She informs Paul that she will not be seeing him again. Paul, unable to let Jeanne go, pursues her through the streets of Paris, chasing her all the way back to her flat, where he declares his love for her and asks for her name.
