A Prophet (2009)
Directed by Jacques
Audiard this film stars Tahar Rahim, Niels Arestrup, Adel Bencherif
and Reda Kateb. A 19 year old man is sent to adult prison for the
first time and is forced to join a gang connected to the Corsican
Mafia.
While there might but
be a ton of new ideas here this is a really good character study of a
man rising up the ranks in the crime world. The prison setting has a
real air of authenticity to it and the plot is always grounded. I
enjoyed the direction which has a few interesting touches to it and
all the performances are strong.
4/5
