La Belle Noiseuse (1991) |
"The characters are unsympathetic, the circumstances are hard to relate to, the dialogue is laboured and the running time brutal. But there is also a surfeit of intelligence and beauty (in technical filmmaking terms) in Rivette's difficult film." |
|
Tomato |
La Bête Humaine (1938) |
"The central performances in this tragic love triangle are brilliant and utterly convincing." |

La Bonne Anne (1973) |
"He tried a harsher approach in this introspective comedy caper flick but, as the relationship between Ventura and Fabian proves, he could never resist the roses." |

La Dolce Vita (1960) |
"In spite of its thematic ugliness, this is a stunning-looking trawl through the Italian capital, with Ekberg's impromptu paddle in the Trevi fountain still the films enduring image." |

La Jetée (1962) |

La Marseillaise (1937) |
"Powerful and poignant, Renoir manages to make a direct, humanist statement about the decadance of the rich and the power of the masses without fuss or extravagance, never patronising or posturing." |

La Silence De La Mer (1947) |

La Vie En Rose (2007) |
"The music of Edith Piaf and Cotillard's transition from alley cat to arthritic wreck make Olivier Dahan's love-letter to the 'Little Sparrow' a must-see." |
Louise Ruisseau |

La Vie Moderne (2008) |

La Zona (2007) |
"Latin American middle-class panic needs no translation in this strong thriller about the worries of the wealthy. Fans of JG Ballard's novels will relish it." |

Tomato 4/5 |
Lady Chatterley (2006) |
"Unhurried in its pacing, Ferran's film is gentle in its nature, allowing the narrative to unfold as gradually as the feelings between Constance Chatterley and her lover. An intimate expression of love and sexuality, it's a triumphant piece of work." |
James Mottram |

Lakeview Terrace (2008) |
"A potboiler with pretensions that's never really at the races." |

Lala Pipo - A Lot of People |
"A Tokyo Story (or six) about urban alienation - although Ozu never thought to include a talking penis in his oeuvre. Masayuki Miyano's debut may be flashily outrageous and upbeat, but its laughs are rooted in the misery of modern humanity." |

Land of the Pharaohs (1955) |
