\n The weight of tradition bears heavily on Marianne, the protagonist of the new film “Mrs”, played by M\u00e9lanie Thierry as a seemingly perfect wife and mother. Film critic Manon Kerjean explains how director David Roux\u2019s minimalist approach draws on the legacy of bourgeois drama master Claude Chabrol \u2013 and why Thierry\u2019s performance carries the film. <\/p>\n
We also discuss the powerful premise of “Compostelle”, which brings together two very different souls on a shared pilgrimage between France and Spain, with strong performances from Alexandra Lamy and Julien Le Berre.<\/p>\n
We then delve into “Unseen Pictures”, a unique documentary that paints a mysterious portrait of a ghostly filmmaker who has never completed a film. And finally, retro comedy “Police Flash 80” gently pokes fun at the macho cop dramas of the past, with Fran\u00e7ois Damiens and Audrey Lamy delivering plenty of humour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The weight of tradition bears heavily on Marianne, the protagonist of the new film “Mrs”, played by M\u00e9lanie…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1528,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[996,1473,378,5,1474,1475],"class_list":["post-1527","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-france","tag-arts24","tag-cinema","tag-culture","tag-france","tag-french-cinema","tag-french-culture"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1527","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1527"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1527\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1528"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1527"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1527"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1527"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
