A spectacular science fiction film, a funny comedy about Latin, a melancholy romance with Guillaume Canet or a stunning feature film about Auschwitz... Here is the beautiful poster - not exhaustive - for the Printemps du cinéma (from this Sunday 24 to Tuesday 26 March, all sessions are 5 euros in participating establishments).
“Dune: Part Two” by Denis Villeneuve
Stronger, more beautiful, bigger, more exciting than the first opus: by going up several notches compared to “Dune”, the summit of SF culture, Denis Villeneuve succeeds in all his bets.
“Bis Repetita” by Émilie Noblet
Under-gifted students forced to surpass themselves in record time?
Déjà vu, of course.
But a comedy about Latin, with entire lines in this dead language, that's very original.
And often irresistible...
“Out of Season” by Stéphane Brizé
By featuring Mathieu, a famous and depressed actor (played by Guillaume Canet, fantastic), Stéphane Brizé creates a romantic and existential film, punctuated with a few notes of humor.
“A Life” by James Hawes
The true story of Nicholas Winton, a Londoner who organized a gigantic operation in 1939 to save hundreds of Jewish children... A moving story, magnified by the power of Anthony Hopkins.
“The Area of Interest” by Jonathan Glazer
“The Zone of Interest” tells the daily life of the family of Rudolf Höss, commander of the Auschwitz concentration camp from 1940 to 1944. A staggering bias for a grueling, but immense, film.
“Daaaaali!”
» by Quentin Dupieux
The director had a crazy idea: to have five actors play Dali (Didier Flamand, Pio Marmaï, Gilles Lellouche, Jonathan Cohen and Édouard Baer).
A delirious, absurd and tasty film.
“The Kings of the Track” by Thierry Klifa
A sort of modern Ma Dalton, Rachel orchestrates small scams and lame thefts with her sons and grandson... A lively and sparkling police comedy.
“Happy Winners” by Maxime Govare and Romain Choay
There are four films in this film, or rather four stories on the same theme: money can't buy happiness.
Cynical, deliciously dark, this comedy is full of crazy situations.
“Scandalously Yours” by Thea Sharrock
In 1920, in a small English coastal town, the very prudish Edith receives anonymous missives... A fantastic treatise on profanity, “Scandalously Yours” doubles as a well-felt social chronicle.

“The Life of My Mother” by Julien Carpentier
The serenity of Pierre (William Lebghil), a florist who owns his own shop, wavers when his mother, the extravagant Judith (Agnès Jaoui), returns to his life... A bittersweet autobiographical marvel.
