Frantz (2016)
Directed by Francois
Ozon this remake of Broken Lullaby (1932) stars Paula Beer, Pierre
Niney, Ernst Stotzner and Marie Gruber. After WW1 a French soldier
visits a German town seeking forgiveness from the family of a German
soldier he killed.
Capturing the post war
period well I am not sure if this film is as deep as others think it
is. The plot is predictable and the French soldier in particular so
selfishly unaware that it makes it hard to sympathise with him. I
liked the way the film flits between black & white and colour as
well as the preformances.
3/5
