La Fidélité (2000)
Directed by Andrzej Zulawski

Drama
aka: Fidelity

Film Synopsis

Clélia is a talented young photographer who becomes the latest acquisition of Lucien Macroi, a Canadian media magnate whose muck-raking tabloids have brought him considerable wealth and influence.  Macroi is counting on Clélia to help improve his corporate image, and for this he is willing to pay her handsomely.  One day, Clélia runs into a 30-something book publisher, Clève, who falls in love with her the moment he sees her.  Compared with the people she has to deal with in her day job, Clélia finds Clève refreshingly direct and honest, and it isn't long after their first encounter that she is accepting his marriage proposal.  Her love life takes a complicated turn when she gets to meet another photographer named Nemo, who veers towards the more brazenly sensational side of grub street journalism.  As Nemo subjects Clélia to his lethal powers of seduction, the young woman's harmonious relationship with Clève suddenly comes under threat.  Infidelity is not something that the clean-living publisher can forgive...

British cinema excels in comedy, from the genius of Will Hay to the camp lunacy of the Carry Ons.
The best French Films of the 1910s
sb-img-2
In the 1910s, French cinema led the way with a new industry which actively encouraged innovation. From the serials of Louis Feuillade to the first auteur pieces of Abel Gance, this decade is rich in cinematic marvels.
The very best of German cinema
sb-img-25
German cinema was at its most inspired in the 1920s, strongly influenced by the expressionist movement, but it enjoyed a renaissance in the 1970s.
The best of Japanese cinema
sb-img-21
The cinema of Japan is noteworthy for its purity, subtlety and visual impact. The films of Ozu, Mizoguchi and Kurosawa are sublime masterpieces of film poetry.
The best French war films ever made

For a nation that was badly scarred by both World Wars, is it so surprising that some of the most profound and poignant war films were made in France?
