1.		Jean De Florette [1986] from Pathe Distribution Price: £4.98 Customer Review: Pretty good as a film - but a bit po-faced. Watching it, you'd never guess that the original book is actually very funny.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		La Gloire De Mon Pere [1990] from Second Sight Films Ltd. Price: £5.98 Customer Review: If you're a fan of Jean de Florette and Manon des Source, you'll enjoy the Provencal landscapes and period charm of this film (and its sister film, the something or other of my mother) but don't expect it to be in the same league as these two great French films - it just isn't. I have tried watching... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Le Chateau De Ma Mere [1991] from Second Sight Films Ltd. Price: £5.98 Customer Review: Exquisite scenery, brilliant photograhy, wonderful understated acting, great autobiographical story by the film maker Louis Pagnol (Jean de Florette etc) told with sensitivity and humour and seen through the rosy glow of fondly remembered childhood experiences. Totally delightful.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		The Chorus [2004] from Pathe Distribution Price: £4.98 Customer Review: What a sweet, sweet film! Absolutely delicious music (bravo! to the composer), gorgeous yet restrained cinematography and a simple heartfelt & inspirational "biographical" screenplay. Box of tissues recommended.

5.		Jean De Florette/Manon Des Sources [1986] from Pathe Distribution Price: £6.98 Customer Review: Its hard to think of anything negative about these two excellent films (not going to repeat the story again-there are plenty of reviews here). However its worth noting that the slowness in the pace of these films mirrors the lives and setting of the characters portraid within. If you have the time... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Il Postino [1995] from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainm Price: £4.97 Customer Review: directed with a light and humourous touch, Il Postino conveys a powerfull message about what is to be appreciated in the world - beauty, love, passion, friendship, loyalty. Can be enjoyed on many levels , and repays rewatching after 10 years, as I have just done. We are introduced,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Le Dîner De Cons from Pathe Distribution Price: £4.98 Customer Review: Unfortunately I don't. I was hoping for a sophisticated French comedy but I hated this film. I truly didn't laugh once - and I couldn't even use it to improve my French because of the English subtitles. Not a single likeable character and an execrable farcical situation, but then I suppose that was... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		Amelie [2001] from Momentum Pictures Price: £4.98 Customer Review: If you are a fan of Bryan Fullers work (Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies) then you will LOVE this movie. It is so beautiful and rich in colour and a joy to watch.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Life Is Beautiful [1999] from Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainm Price: £3.98 Customer Review: I would give this no stars at all. There was NOTHING beautiful about "life" for the Jews who went through the Holocaust. This is the most cynical, insensitive, arse-covering, insulting interpretation of the Holocaust ever to be produced. I hate it! And I hate that foolish Roberto Benigni for... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		Etre Et Avoir [2002] from Tartan Video Price: £19.98 Customer Review: ..nothing much happens and it is the quietness of this film (particularly compared to life with my own children!) that strikes you. The sense that here is a truly inspirational teacher, doing an excellent job quietly, calmly and with great love for the children builds throughout the film. Absorbing... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
