Winner of four César Awards, this impassioned thriller from Guillaume Canet also has the distinction of being one of Michael Caine’s favorite films. Fueled by François Cluzet’s intense performance, Tell No One is equal parts electrifying and moving, crowned by a staggering foot chase through Paris.
In the conclusion to their two-part epic, the perfectly paired Jacques Rivette and Sandrine Bonnaire continue their atheistic approach to the life & death of Joan of Arc, chronicling Joan, the woman, at war and on trial. An elegant, understated, and uniquely human portrayal of the canonical figure.
Casting the great Sandrine Bonnaire as his titular heroine, Jacques Rivette diverges from the stark expressionism of Dreyer and transcendent asceticism of Bresson for a rich and expansive six-hour, two-part epic. A singularly human and complicated character study, seen here in a new restoration.
