Has anyone else seen this recent French film? I just watched it tonight and was really impressed. It clocks in at 2hours and has French subtitles.

I won't spoil it for anyone but basically the film is crafted around a man who's wife gets murdered at a secluded spot and he becomes a suspect. Fast forward 8 years and things start to get really strange. It's a well worked plot and has some great twists and turns along the way. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for something to watch over the Christmas period.

If you have seen it before, lets have your thoughts.

Yep, absolutely loved it. Amazing film, and I too would highly recommend it.

Top notch thriller. I was engaged throughout the whole movie. Really well paced and the plot is fantastic. I would be really surprised if Hollywood don't take this movie (and subsequently rape it)

On a side note. That main actor has got to be a long lost French brother of Dustin Hoffman. The resemblance is uncanny.

I thought so too!

Incidentally, speaking of American remakes this is oddly enough a French film adaptation of an American novel.

I loved the movie, I've actually been thinking of starting a French Thriller thread but I'm trying to think of enough examples. This was just such a slick, compelling movie.

I enjoyed it but wasn't as blown away as some seem to have been.

It's certainly worth checking out though.

a remake? Honestly is there any real need, theres not much wrong with the film as is.

Agree about the Dustin Hoffman comment, I thought the same thing .
