Book Presentation:
The famed film writer and critic reviews twenty-five essential French films, featuring Amélie, Belle du Jour, La Vie en Rose, and Au Revoir les Enfants.

Like a full-bodied Bordeaux wine, Roger Ebert’s e-book original 25 Great French Films will reward you with a rich variety of full-length reviews of cinematic experiences. From such classics as Belle de Jour, Day for Night, and The 400 Blows to the sweeping drama (and beautiful scenery!) of Jean de Florette and its sequel Manon of the Spring, this e-book provides a perfect primer for those new to French films and a welcome refresher course for true Francophiles. And, as an added attraction, most of the reviews are accompanied with a clip of the movies’ trailers, including gems like Mr. Hulot’s Holiday and Jules and Jim.
