Review of Au Revoir les Enfants (1987) by Alex S — 12 Mar 2016
There are many words you can use to describe Au Revoir Les Enfants, but if you aren't putting brilliant and amazing on the list, you missed something. This movie, clearly very personal to Malle, is an extraordinary look at such universal themes as youth, friendship, war, and compassion; making some kind of point about all of them in under two hours.
A true masterpiece that adds a late great entry in Malle's undeniably exceptional canon.
