Suite Francaise (2015)
Directed by Saul Dibb
this film based on the novel of the same name stars Michelle
Williams, Kristin Scott Thomas, Matthias Schoenaerts and Ruth Wilson.
A young woman living with her overbearing mother in law faces moral
dilemmas in the early years of the German occupation of France in
WW2.
Consisting of only a
portion of it's source material the story behind this film is
probably more interesting than the film itself. The plot is pretty
good though and does show the problems faced by those living under an
occupying force. Generally well made the film does not stray to
melodrama and has some decent performances.
4/5
