Le Renard jaune (2013)
Directed by Jean-Pierre Mocky

Crime / Thriller

Film Synopsis

Charles Senac, the author of a single bestselling novel, is found dead at his home.  There is no shortage of murder suspects: he was the most unpopular man in the district, and the patrons and owner of a bistro named The Yellow Fox which he often frequented all have a reason for killing Senac.  Inspector Giraud, a former cycling champion who is now forgotten, leads the investigation, using the bistro as his headquarters.  This is not something that Jean Virno had anticipated when he placed a bomb in the bistro - a bomb that is set to go off at midday...

The best of American cinema
sb-img-26
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
The best of British film comedies
sb-img-15
British cinema excels in comedy, from the genius of Will Hay to the camp lunacy of the Carry Ons.
The very best fantasy films in French cinema
sb-img-30
Whilst the horror genre is under-represented in French cinema, there are still a fair number of weird and wonderful forays into the realms of fantasy.
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 of Indian cinema
sb-img-22
Forget Bollywood, the best of India's cinema is to be found elsewhere, most notably in the extraordinary work of Satyajit Ray.
