Movie Reviews

CineVue - 10/10 by Martyn ConterioMalle builds Au Revoir Les Enfants out of small but vivid details centred on the life of the boarder, and the daily rituals and routines experienced by Julien Quentin (Gaspard Manesse) and Jean Bonnet (Raphael Fejtö).
Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA powerful portrait of wartime France seen through the eyes of a child... The best film of director Louis Malle's distinguished career
Austin Chronicle - 10/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenThe great Louis Malle based this movie on his rueful recollection of an event that happened at his childhood boarding school during WWII.
Filmcritic.com - 9/10 by Christopher Nullunquestionably Malle's most personal film and arguably his most powerful
TIME Magazine - 9/10 by Richard CorlissIn this frightening and beautiful film, a schoolboy must learn hard lessons early.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyOne of Louis Malle's most personal and significant films.
The List - 8/10 by Tony McKibbinIt was a story that, 'kept haunting me all these years,' Malle said, and it's likely to haunt the viewer a little also.
Time Out - 8/10 by Tom HuddlestonAn ever-shifting balance of power is the film's greatest strength.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by David ParkinsonLouis Malle, possibly at his best here. The drama is subtle but affecting.
Little White Lies - 8/10 by Wally HammondNot the director's best work, but far, far from being his worst either.
