Quintet is a 1979 American post-apocalyptic science fiction film directed by Robert Altman. It stars Paul Newman, Brigitte Fossey, Bibi Andersson, Fernando Rey, Vittorio Gassman and Nina Van Pallandt.

Production

Robert Altman came up with the original idea but said he wanted Walter Hill to write and direct the film. He also told author/director Lionel Chetwynd of a dream he had about a fantastical game of chance that involved a quintet of players. He not only envisioned making a board game of it but also a film, provided that Chetwynd write a novella to serve as the basis for the film. Disagreements in the draft process led to this falling through.

Quintet was filmed in early 1978 on the site of Montreal's Expo 67 world's fair. The extreme cold made the shoot challenging for the cast and crew. The soundtrack was recorded by the New York Philharmonic.

This was the first film for which Altman's son, Stephen Altman, served as property master.

At the time of the film's release, 20th Century Fox president Alan Ladd Jr. told Variety that Altman was not given final cut on what Ladd termed "a complicated picture".
