Travelling alone, internationally acclaimed and Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer and filmmaker Raymond Depardon spent six years capturing France with a large format camera. This long, solitary road trip provided fertile ground for the creation of an extraordinary travel journal. Depardon revisited important places from his past as a reporter: Chad, Venice and Cannes. Previously unseen footage from his archive has also been added to create an intimate, compelling and revelatory 'Journal de France' - a unique portrait of a country and its landscapes.
Leave your thoughts about Journal de France.
| Total FilmSimon KinnearEven in fragments, the humanism of Depardon's gaze moves and inspires. |
| Empire MagazineDavid ParkinsonGently moving and subtly powerful, this will thrill Francophiles. |
| Financial TimesNigel AndrewsJournal de France is really two films, awkwardly joined but rejoicing in a paradox the French, of all, must surely love. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawAn engrossing and valuable personal record of the work of photographer and film-maker Raymond Depardon, depicting his autumnal journey across France, taking pictures of buildings and street scenes that he believes are in danger of dying out. |
| Irish TimesDonald ClarkeVery touching. Very compelling. Very French. |
| VarietyJay WeissbergA tribute to a masterful eye, a humanistic heart and a wondrous life, "Journal" is a natural for docu fests and Euro satcasts. |
| Metro (UK)Ann Lee... a greatest-hits slideshow of a career that clicks us from war-torn Paris to the Yemen, Haiti and Prague. Frequently fascinating, if a tad unfocused. |
| Time OutTrevor JohnstonA fascinating introduction to one of France's major filmmakers. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Tim RobeyBest treated as a sampler of his career highlights, this might well serve as a good introduction. |
| Little White LiesDavid JenkinsA nostalgic cine-scrapbook on the life and times of famed French documentarian Raymond Depardon. |
