Thieves (Les Voleurs)

starring: Catherine Deneuve, Daniel Auteuil, Laurence Côte, Benoît Magimel, Fabienne Babe
directed by: André Téchiné


Deneuve is in a subdued role in this film. She's also in a supporting role so the film cover is a bit misleading. The story is not as strong as others that she's chosen.

Daniel Auteuil is great as the cop who is entangled in the life of a trouble-making young woman. Extremely sexy in this role, he plays the role of a strong yet conflicted law enforcer well.

The film is a bit weak in its flow. It's not the worst film but it's also not extremely good either.

La Séparation

starring: Isabelle Huppert, Daniel Auteuil, Jérôme Deschamps, Karin Viard, Laurence Lerel
directed by: Christian Vincent

Daniel Auteuil. Need I say more? I love him! If he is in a film, you can sure bet it is going to be a picture filled with depth and substance. He is one of my favorite actors, right up there with Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. After you see this one, buy "The Girl on the Bridge", and see Auteuil show off his outstanding capability of playing a wide varitey of acting roles. One of the BEST in the profession!

Eighth Day, the

starring: Daniel Auteuil, Pascal Duquenne, Miou-Miou, Henri Garcin, Isabelle Sadoyan
directed by: Jaco van Dormael

March 17, 1998
Incredibly pleased that the French got stuffed in the Football World Cup 2002 and were sufficently embarrased by my compatriots in The Rugby World Cup of 2003 and looking forward to their impending defeat in EURO 2004. The fact that they are taking are taking a jolly good drubbing in the field of sports should not detract from their superb filmaking abilities. This movie- made following their rather bizarre rise to the pinnacle of the football world in 1998-is a truly gifted piece of cinematography. Watch it, or I'll make you watch cricket with the commentary. Enjoy.

Romuald et Juliette

starring: Daniel Auteuil, Firmine Richard, Pierre Vernier, Maxime Leroux, Gilles Privat
directed by: Coline Serreau

A funny film! I really love the leads in this film. Daniel Auteuil is great, as always! He's got a great body of work and this comedy doesn't taint but adds to the shine of his film career!

Even though the film is a comedy, there is a lot to say about the social issues embedded in the story. Class, race, crime and gender relations all play an important part in the film.

This film should not be remade in any language. It should stay intact the way it is and seen by everyone!

Lucie Aubrac

starring: Carole Bouquet, Daniel Auteuil, Patrice Chéreau, Jean-Roger Milo, Eric Boucher
directed by: Claude Berri


In spite of this being a very serious movie about a serious time in history, it is not without some light moments...one of which I am still surprised got left in the final version! Like, when they have just made Love a few minutes before and she says "let's do it again and this time leave IT in me!"

Everything the other people have said is true and my advice is to watch it & judge for yourself! You won't be disaapointed.
