Review of A Prophet (2009) by Erg1008 — 17 Mar 2011
Young French/Arab sent to prison for six years, Corsicans force him to do "job" for protection, gets more confident, more jobs, drugs, money, deceit.
Excellent French prison drama which, although very brutal in places, has you reeled in from the start & doesn't seem as long as its 155 minute running time.
Really good mix of a cast too portraying the different groups within the prison & Tahar Rahim excels in the lead as Malik.
