Provincetown Film Art Series: The Train

What’s more important, art or life? Or is the distinction ultimately irrelevant? This tense and bitter World War II drama, about a train of looted art masterpieces on its way to the Third Reich, caps off a run of John Frankenheimer ’60s classics, after Birdman of Alcatraz, The Manchurian Candidate and Seven Days in May. Directed by John Frankenheimer. With Burt Lancaster, Paul Scofield and Jeanne Moreau. Black and white. 2 hours, 13 minutes.
