'French' Film


I'm currently teaching myself French and I really enjoyed this film. Can any Francophones perhaps recommend me some films that are entirely in French that are sort of in this style that I might enjoy? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Try Celine et Julie vont en bateau.





Do you suspect ... "foul play"?

Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amelie Poulain

My favorite =]

Amélie will change your life!
I'd also reccomend Les Parapluies de Cherbourg.
Good luck with your French!

Not exactly "in this style", but another quirky, witty and engaging film about a young man's infatuation with an unattainable woman is Diva.

Delicatessen (released in 1991) is a MUST SEE! A very bizarre dark comedy directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro.

Also, La Cité des enfants perdus (released in 1995, US title "The City of Lost Children") is another directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro.

And of course, Amelie (2001)...yep, directed by, you guessed it, Jean-Pierre Jeunet.

Enjoy!

Look at some of Luc Besson's movies

Definitely Amelie. I'll include another Audrey film called Happenstance, very similar to Amelie and SOS.

Amélie is an absolutely amazing film

La frontière de l'aube is recent and good and anything directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet.

Bonjour! I recommend other movies with Charlotte Gainsbourg, one of my favorite actress since a very long time: Lemming (2005) a mysterious surreal thriller, La Petite voleuse (1988) the movie that started my admiration for her, Grosse Fatigue (1994), Love etc (1996), La bûche (1999), Ma femme est une actrice (2001), Ils se marièrent et eurent beaucoup d'enfants (2004), L'Un reste l'autre part (2005), Prête-moi ta main (2006).
