A Day at the Museum A Day at the Museum
Making a comedy that satirizes the art world and most particularly museums was certainly a great premise.

Beautiful Memories Beautiful Memories
Loss of memory is a very popular theme in today's cinema and its consequences have varied, from pure escapism to twisted machinations and sexual (re)discovery. Rather than capitalizing on the results of amnesia, Beautiful Memories examines the degenerative process of loss.


Mesrine Mesrine
If you're not familiar with Jacques Mesrine, France's most notorious contemporary gangster, looking at the two posters that accompany the release of this 2-part biopic might somewhat leave you puzzled.

OSS 117 Lost in Rio OSS 117 Lost in Rio
The second entry in the OSS 117 comedy series, OSS 117 Lost in Rio jumps from 50's Cairo to 60's Rio to give us another biting satire, this time taking on the peace and love movement as well a country that used to be a Nazi haven.

Secrets of State Secrets of State
Positioned as a realistic look at the War of Intelligences and aiming at capturing both angles, Secrets of State leaves you with the feeling that becoming a secret agent is easier than you think.

Someone I Loved Someone I Loved
Someone I Loved centers on an affair between a middle-aged married man and a beautiful young woman.

Spy(ies) Spy(ies)
French writer/director Nicolas Saada's debut film might be called Spy(ies) but the world he describes here is at the opposite of the glamour clichés usually associated with the genre.
