L'Emmerdeur (2008) |
"The physical comedy works well, and while the farce is perhaps oversize for the screen these days, it is nevertheless an entertaining and genial trip." |

L'Emmerdeur (2008) |
"Francis Veber's touch of the absurd is in fine form in his latest comedy of errors involving a crim, a hitman, a suicidal jilted husband, his adulterous wife, her shrink lover and the hotel butler." |

L'Enfant (2006) |
"It's a thin story and the film is unremarkable in cinematic terms, except for the tension that the Dardennes manage to maintain, thanks to top performances from Jérémie Renier and Déborah François" |

L'Enfer (2005) |
"The characters fascinate yet confuse. Surprisingly, the film keeps us at arms length. On reflection, I enjoyed the film more after it had finished, when I could dip back into this claustrophobic world and relive the unfolding of events in my mind." |

L'Invite (2007) |
"A frivolous comedy of errors made entertaining by its esteemed cast, The Dinner Guest is scrumptious in parts but doesn't quite live up to expectations. Having said that, it is hard to be too critical of any film with this cast." |

L.A. Confidential (1997) |

L.A. Story (1991) |

La Personne aux Deux Personnes (2008) |

La Personne aux Deux Personnes (2008) |

La Vie En Rose (2007) |
"I had goosebumps from the very first moment, when Marion Cotillard's Piaf stands centre stage in New York in 1959, singing from her soul. It's an extraordinary performance from an almost unrecognisable Cotillard" |

Lacombe, Lucien (1974) |

Lady Chatterley |
"Today, it seems rather tame, even with the penis shots, the sex and the running naked in the rain. The lengthy ending, full of words to explain Oliver's inner turmoil, is another example of how prose is not always good cinema" |
