Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Le Bal is a 1983 film directed by Ettore Scola.It tells the history of France, 1936-1983, as seen on the dance floor of a single nightclub. Vignettes from the movie are set in 1936 (the victory of the Popular Front), 1940 (France conquered by the Nazis), 1944 (liberation), 1946 (profiteers in postwar France), 1956 (rock music, the Algerian war), 1968 (the May '68 protests), and 1983 (disco!). The same cast of actors play different characters over all time periods. There is not a word of spoken dialogue in the movie: all the stories are played out Silent Movie style, with dancing, pantomime, costumes, and music, all on the single nightclub set. | |

All There in the Manual: Some of the dates are easy enough to fix, like the liberation in 1944. But others, like the 1950s scene, are not. The exact dates are given by the list of music in the end credits. | |

Age Cut | |
| Le Bal / int_953a8ee8 | comment |
Age Cut: The opening scene has the bartender turning on the lights and then the guests (the cast of the film) showing up. After all the cast members are shown the movie cuts back to the elderly bartender. There's a puff of steam from the bar, which dissipates to show the bartender looking forty-odd years younger, as the scene has jumped back to 1936. | |

| Le Bal / int_d028e0da | comment |
An Arm and a Leg: The dancers in the nightclub are celebrating the liberation in 1944. One woman, who has been showing people pictures of her missing lover, turns to see him on the stairs, missing one leg and using a crutch. The dancing comes to a stop as the man limps over to his lover, sets aside his crutch, embraces her—and starts dancing by hopping on one foot. | |
