#LetterboxdFriday — Two French poetic realism movies — • CHILDREN OF PARADISE • (and its “making of” doc) More poetic than realistic. • GRAND ILLUSION • Shows the futility and stupidity of war. Goebbels labeled it as “Cinematic Public Enemy No. 1”. Mussolini prevented its Venice win which triggered French to establish the Cannes Film Festival. — One “read-the-book-so-lets-watch-the-adaptation” movie — • ENCHANTED APRIL • Same as the book, it starts off promising but ends a bit meh. #Movies
