Title: French Crime Wave @ Film Forum
Post by: Chris L on August 03, 2008, 10:07:53 PM

Another reason to be jealous (http://www.filmforum.org/films/crimewave.htmll) of New Yorkers' cinematic options.  Great time of year for something like this too.  I've only seen a few of these but luckily many have either been released or are forthcoming from Criterion.

I'm surprised that I've actually seen a lot of these (basically on the Criterion DVDs) but it's a great lineup. I'll have to scan through it and add some of them to my Netflix queue.

Actually, I was disappointed I didn't see Hásu's Oh Chié, C'est Ma Confiture listed there.

Damn Anti-Hasu Kid at work, I bet.

I would definitely geek out for this stuff, though. Le Cercle Rouge is a hell of a movie, and I'm itching to see more stuff in that vein.
