The Moreau Files: ‘Jules et Jim’
“In the male dominated world of the French New Wave, Catherine (Jeanne Moreau) in François Truffaut’s Jules et Jim (1962) stands out as a mysterious and particularly beguiling female presence.”

Review: François Delisle’s ‘Chorus’
“Grief is quite clearly the central theme of Chorus, and the film portrays two people gripped with guilt, anger and sadness at the loss of their child. Loneliness and isolation pervade the universe of the film, the characters drifting and barely connecting with the world around them.”
