The best movie of the week is “Big Movie”.

3 best films according to the press:

1: The seeds of the wild fig tree – 4.4/5

“In this falsely closed door that only reveals the reality of Iran’s state violence, Mohammad Rasoulof observes a series of fascinating changes, starting with his protagonist’s political awakening. A superb piece of cinematography.” by Antoine Desrus (Widescreen)

“If the Iranian regime is clearly condemned, the film is universal enough to apply to any authoritarian country. It concludes with an intense final hour that draws on genre cinema, from Westerns to The Shining, to offer an unforgiving indictment.” By Thibaut Lis (Le Dauphiné Libéré).

2nd: my life my face – 3.9/5

“Finished by the director’s children, this film is a marvel of tragicomic poetry and offers Agnes Jaoui one of her most beautiful roles.” by Bruno DeRuisseau (Les Inrockuptibles)

“Agnes Jauy is excellent in this funny, good, and moving comedy, a posthumous production of Sophie Filler, who died shortly after filming.” Catherine Peinsett (La Voix du Nord)

3rd: Conservatory Street – 3.8/5

“The duality that carries emotions that Valerie Donzel takes great advantage of.” Xavier Leherpeur (L’Obs)

“A masterfully written documentary.” By Caroline Besse (Télérama)

3 best movies according to viewers:

1: Wild Fig Seed – 4.3/5

“Beyond the didactic homage to the Femme Vie Liberté movement (which the film is one and the same, but indirectly), The Seed of the Wild Fig Tree is a true masterpiece, destabilizing and exciting, which culminates in the finale of the anthology. ” by Christoblog

“A stunningly powerful film.” by JM B

2nd: No chains and no masters – 3.8/5

“Shocking, incredible meaning, huge technique.” DH of Ion

3rd: do not speak evil – 3.3/5

“Having never seen the Danish original, I was quite intrigued by this American remake. All in all, it’s a nice surprise.” by Nanarfil

This 2024 version by James Watkins maintains the essence of the original, while adding its own twist and establishing itself as a disturbing and unforgettable cinematic experience. By Zola Ntondo
