To help you make your choices, here are the films of the week with the highest ratings by the press on AlloCiné!*
THE 3 BEST FILMS ACCORDING TO THE PRESS:
1st: Marcel le Coquillage (with his shoes) – 3.8/5
“Combining with great dexterity live action and stop motion (figures filmed frame by frame), “Marcel le coquillage” achieves the feat of nailing the viewer to his chair by involving only two or three characters most of the time. ” By the editorial staff (Le Parisien)
“Marcel le Coquillage (with his shoes) is as inventive and touching as his main character suggests, but above all philosophical, loving and deeply tearful.” By Déborah Lechner (Widescreen)
2nd: love-life – 3.7/5
“Kôji Fukada imposes himself with Love Life as a leading filmmaker, capable of reinventing melodrama by ridding it of easy effects to infuse it with a subtlety that in no way harms the emotional impact. We want more.” By Denitza Bantcheva (Positive)
“This disconcerting and subtle film confirms the talent of a discreet filmmaker who embodies, alongside Ryusuke Hamaguchi, the revival of Japanese cinema.” Celine Rouden (La Croix)
3rd: The Peace Process – 3.6/5
“We have seen and reviewed comedies about the couple, how they are doing and not doing. From this old worn subject, Ilan Klipper makes a crazy, hilarious, tasty film, whose absurd humor is not so far from the best Woody Allens on the subject.” By Nathalie Chifflet (Latest News from Alsace)
“A funny and squeaky version of “Scenes from Married Life”, served up by sparkling dialogue and actors who have as much fun as us.” By Xavier Leherpeur (L’Obs)

“Céleste Brunnquell confirms a remarkable talent after Les Eblouis and En Thérapie.” By Annette
