Why so little activity on this board


I found this to be a quite well done film, and here it is an Oscar nominee for best foreign language film, and nobody's here to discuss it. How come?

Life, every now and then, behaves as though it had seen too many bad movies

Yeah this is a French movie that recently got an Academy Award nomination; I was expecting this board to be busy and bustling. I can't believe there's only 3 threads.

Maybe it wasn't shown in many theaters in the US and/or UK. I assume it was at least released outside of Algeria and France. As for me I saw it on Netflix yesterday.

as it seems this film didnt attract much attention as it wasnt one of those millions of films about the so-called "french resistance" during ww2

as it seems this film is largely ignored because it actually shows that there was simply no difference between nazis and colonial france...

No difference? France did some really bad things but to compare them to Hitler....come on.
