About Moments Before the New Year
A mentally deficient man spends New Year's Eve in front of the television in his dingy rooming house, in the company of his landlord. The two spend the evening drinking and watching a ten-year summary of global catastrophes before the ominous programming is capped-off with well wishes for the New Year.
Directed by Robert Morin, Moments Before the New Year leans on a strong ensemble — Robert Gravel, Paul Savoie — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1985.
