  • Another Man (2008)
    Review preview for Another Man

    Trots, sometimes quite outrageously, along the thin line between the pretentious and the profound and never really falls into either camp.

    James Benefield · 3 out of 5
    Psychological drama about a young, inexperienced film reviewer who falls for the charms of a well-established female colleague.
  • Both Sides Of The Blade (2021)
    Review preview for Both Sides Of The Blade

    Although this film has no body count, it carries with it all the danger of an erotic thriller.

    Amber Wilkinson · 4 out of 5
    Sara has been in a stable, loving relationship with Jean for years. But then a man from their past reappears and, without warning, an old passion reignites.
  • Belle Toujours (2006)
    Review preview for Belle Toujours

    If Belle De Jour was an examination of 'feminine mystique', this film is an examination of male obsession with it.

    Jennie Kermode · 4 out of 5
    Forty years later, two of the characters from Belle De Jour are reunited, with a vengeful Henri determined to make Séverine face up to the past.
  • The Discreet Charm Of The Bourgeoisie (1972)
    Review preview for The Discreet Charm Of The Bourgeoisie

    Delicious like Eve's apple.

    Jennie Kermode · 5 out of 5

  • Don't Touch The Axe (2007)
    Review preview for Don't Touch The Axe

    Anyone with a decent education in literature and art will find a great deal in this film which can be treasured, but for the general viewer it is likely to be an exercise in frustration.

    Jennie Kermode · 3 out of 5
    A Paris coquette seduces and toys with a heroic general, only to fall suddenly and tragically in love with him.
  • Gang Of Four (1988)
    Review preview for Gang Of Four

    I'm no expert on the New Wave, but it seems Rivette's interpretation of it is pretty obvious – to make films that are completely unwatchable.

    Gary Duncan · 1 out of 5
    Four students face trouble after one of them meets a mysterious stranger.
  • Maitresse (1976)
    Review preview for Maitresse

    Many of the scenes are fairly explicit, but as the film sets out to observe, rather than make judgements, nothing feels shocking, salacious, pornographic or disturbing.

    Keith Dudhnath · 4 out of 5
    The love life of a dominatrix prostitute.
  • Venus Beauty (1999)
    Review preview for Venus Beauty

    Being French, the film has a certain charm, although its premise is flimsy.

    Angus Wolfe Murray · 2 out of 5
    Gentle romance set in a beauty parlour.
