The best movie of the week is “Explosive and Euphoric”

3 best films according to the press:

1: a bird – 3.9/5

“A small wonder of poetry, admired for its precision and modesty.” Cedric Delele (Mad Movies)

“A harsh and surprising film.” By Olivier de Bruin (Les Echos)

2nd: Toto-chan, the little girl at the window – 3.8/5

“In this ode to independence and fun, the painting’s deceptively naturalistic beauty aptly evokes the tragic loss of innocence. Excellent.” Xavier Leherpeur (L’Obs)

“A poignant initiation story that, without shying away from violence, remains steadfastly focused on hope.” By Julie Longin (Les Fiches du Cinéma)

3rd: Ephesus, the last circle – 3.6/5

“Morning, Noon, and Evening are all narrative but also formal chapters, Lund turns them into areas of aesthetic exploration, like an artist presenting his portraits in different lighting.” By Fernando Ganzo (Cahiers du Cinéma)

“The impression of tranquility that emerges from Ephesus is primarily a reflection of the disrupted communication that governs this small community of people that is being quietly erased.” By Bastien Gens (Critikat.com)

3 best movies according to viewers:

1: love in the present – 3.9/5

“Infinitely tender but never naïve, poignant but never cut-throat, easily moved to tears, moreover, John Crowley’s film is – as expected – carried by excellent performances from its two leads.” by RedArrow

“A beautifully made film, a lot of emotions, we go from laughter to tears and from tears to laughter in a second.” Martin D.

2nd: Bear in Jura – 3.8/5

“A great story that starts from the beginning and where humor and emotion are mixed in small touches. This unexpected movie keeps us in suspense. A real crazy country western. Benoit Poelvorde is amazing as a gendarme with a big heart. A must see!” by enga2104

“A fun movie with good actors, comical scenes that follow each other!” By Boragini Valery

3rd: Birdie – 3.7/5

“A fascinating film seen at the Cannes Film Festival. A whirlwind of emotions. The director is original.” by donidarko1

“This movie is absolutely fabulous. Great rock and rap soundtrack. The cast is great.” by Chloe
