Hmm... I am not sure you'd necessarily like Diva if you like those others. Sure, it's French, but Luc Besson's lightweight flashy style is light-years away JdF and MdS.
I'd agree that Juliette Binoche is probably the best French actress around, although Sandrine Bonnaire is very good (especially in Confidences Trop Intimes a few years back)... and actually Kristen Scott Thomas managed to give the best performance in a French movie last year in Il y a longtemps que je t'aime (I've Loved You So Long) - which criminally wasn't even nominated for any Oscars...

FM, what have you done to your avatar? I don't like seeing pictures of my friend's head all mangled
It's creepy

I love 'Amelie' too, although I'm less into the whole fancying her thing, obviously.
I like all the stuff she does to the horrible greengrocer... Esp the subtle things, like swapping his slippers.

"I've loved you so long" is AWESOME!!!!!!! I loved it. I agree...total crime it missed out at the Oscars.

Kristen Scott Thomas gives such a subtle, measured performance. And the woman who plays her sister too. In fact, all the characters, even the minor ones, are wonderfully written and played - everyone has their small tragedies, their quiet desparation.

So it's not actually your head being mangled.
That's a relief.

It is quite disturbing, FM!!
Yes, the sister is Elsa Zyberstein and she was wonderful too. There was a lot of sobbing in my row during that film, but we came out buzzing.

Got "Lacombe Lucien" on DVD, not an ogle film at all & the very unpleasant people in it are all French fascists, Jerry hardly features (it's a WWII film). It is true art - hard to watch as it grinds your nose into the truth but you can't help but keep thinking about it afterwards.
