The Tenant

Patrice Alexsandre
Paramount, 2003
I think I'm pregnant!
The Tenant is without doubt, Polanski's best film ever...in my opinion! I love the slow burning paranoia and depth of madness that the main character spirals into. Was this madness already in him or was he driven to madness by those nieghbours! I think it is the ...

unconscious artifact
this movie makes me feel as if i've been swallowed whole by deja vu, long-forgotten dreams and any other unconscious artifact. brilliant!
Story of Women
Isabelle Huppert

François Cluzet
Homevision, 2004
Goes to places that Vera Drake leaves untouched
Claude Chabrol's Une Affaire de Femmes/Story of Women, based on a real-life miscarriage of justice, is a surprisingly even-handed film that steps aside from cheap emotionalism to present the good, the bad and the ugly sides of its abortionist protagonist without ...

,
Benoît Magimel
Fox Lorber, 2000
Excellent commentary on relationships
Although this movie seems to center on the scintillatingly beautiful Virginie Ledoyen, it actually provides an in-depth portrait of the nature of relationships. While trying to make a decision about her life, Ledoyen encounters a number of characters, each engaged in a ...

Jacques Dutronc
FIRST RUN FEATURES, 2003
A little spilled chocolate goes a long way.
So far, I've seen maybe 7 Chabrol films (older and recent ones) and this is easily the most enjoyable one yet. Actually, I wasn't expecting much, after some mixed reviews here, but found the DVD for a decent price used at a local store, and gave it a shot. While I ...

Very Upbeat Road Trip Film
This is truly a wonderfully charming film. It is refreshing to see a movie deal with a character being HIV positive who is approaching his condition in such a positive way. This movie, much like Brokeback Mountain, is not only for a gay audience. Everyone could benefit ...
Monsieur Hire (Ws Sub)
Sandrine Bonnaire Michel Blanc
Kino International, 2007
A Timeless Psychological Thriller
I recently found a copy of Georges Simenon's 1933 "The Engagement" on the remainder table at a local bookstore. Simenon was an extraordinarily successful writer and this work is one of his very best. The novel is a psychological thriller with outward description ...

A rare film
Basically, I am writing to rebut the negative reviews on this page. I saw this film years ago, and it rang very true to me- so much so that I wanted to buy the DVD. Have to admit that I was myself an ex-pat teenager in Europe in somewhat the same era, and Merchant ...

Sony Pictures, 1999
"Loris...a normal name. It warms the heart..."
The Monster, or Il Mostro as it is called in Italian, is about a man named Loris who is by no means a decent human being. He steals, he lies, he cheats his landlord out of potential buyers of his apartment (yet he won't pay the rent). He places supermarket items on ...
