The best of foreign films!
19 July 1999
La Gloire de mon père is the ultimate example of an excellent foreign movie. The film has been highly acclaimed by critics across North America and Europe. When you take a well-written screenplay and couple it with convincing acting performances a good movie arrives.

If you only want to see one foreign film in your life - see Life is Beautiful, but if you decide on seeing two, this should be it. Don't forget to also watch the sequel (not as good, but then again, no sequels are!), Le Château de ma mère. The two combine to create a masterpiece like no other!
