The Goldman Case (2023) 98% EDIT “Despite a few implausible moments, The Goldman Case confirms Kahn’s judgement, on reading Goldman’s memoir, that the man, “a gambler and provocateur, brilliant, ambiguous, manipulative”, was a “cinematic character” – which indeed he is.” – Sight & Sound Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Holy Motors (2012) 91% EDIT “The film makes up for... lapses with dazzling moments.” – Sight & Sound Apr 29, 2020 Full Review The Fits (2015) 96% EDIT “The Fits celebrates young black women, with an accent on their bodies.” – Sight & Sound Feb 23, 2017 Full Review The Measure of a Man (2015) 92% EDIT “Brizé has cleverly cast people with an extraordinary confidence in front of the camera, which means that Lindon's customary minimalist yet charismatic performance style blends wonderfully with the rest of the cast.” – Sight & Sound Jun 2, 2016 Full Review Cycling With Moliere (2013) 75% EDIT “Cycling with Molire gives us both a French-language fest and acting fireworks.” – Sight & Sound Jul 7, 2014 Full Review Gainsbourg (2011) 73% EDIT “In conjoining Jewish heritage and classic French chanson, Gainsbourg celebrates the hybridity of contemporary French culture, while its combination of realist narrative and poetic animation make it both a touching biopic and an inspired musical.” – Sight & Sound Jun 18, 2012 Full Review The Dreamers (2003) 59% EDIT “By far the most engaging aspect of the film is its celebration of cinema.” – Sight & Sound Feb 3, 2004 Full Review The Man on the Train (2002) 92% EDIT “The contrast between old-fogeyish Manesquier and dangerous 'man with no name' Milan, between loquacious, actorly Rochefort and silent 'natural' Hallyday, is initially droll, although it wears thin after a while.” – Sight & Sound Apr 1, 2003 Full Review 8 Women (2002) 79% EDIT “Each performance is beautifully controlled, notably Huppert's devastating comic turn as Augustine, and integrated into a seamless ensemble.” – Sight & Sound Dec 3, 2002 Full Review Human Resources (1999) 97% EDIT “Generous, sensitive and innovative. It is a film in which, in the widest possible sense, the personal is political.” – Sight & Sound Dec 2, 2002 Full Review Chance or Coincidence (1998) EDIT “The fact that Lelouch mobilises massive cinematic means for an old-fashioned melodrama is fine. The problem is his penchant for overlaying this with a thick layer of 'serious' themes.” – Sight & Sound Mar 7, 2002 Full Review Who Knows? (2001) 86% EDIT “Rivette manages the complex choreography of his characters with virtuoso comic timing.” – Sight & Sound Jan 1, 2002 Full Review Under the Sand (2000) 93% EDIT “Marie increasingly appears like the beach in the film: beautiful but vacant.” – Sight & Sound Apr 13, 2001 Full Review The Golden Bowl (2000) 55% EDIT “Like its eponymous artefact, The Golden Bowl is flawed -- yet it remains an object of great beauty and elegance.” – Sight & Sound Apr 13, 2001 Full Review
