A Journey Through French Cinema's reviews
Media reviews
Los Angeles Times
"No matter what your taste is, no matter how much or how little you know about French film, Tavernier's personal ?Journey? will leave you informed, enlightened and eager for more."
New York Times
"It?s delightful to share in that passion and a pleasure too that he?s more interested in ideas and emotions than stories and plots."
The Hollywood Reporter
"It?s these artists that veteran writer-director Bertrand Tavernier pays tribute to in A Journey Through French Cinema masterfully exploring some of the forgotten glories of French movies in the way that Martin Scorsese shined a light on several bygone American auteurs in his A Personal Journey series."
The Wrap
"One of the biggest takeaways from ?My Journey? and Tavernier?s enthusiasm for the confluence of image, performance, writing and sound is something hard to ignore the next time you see a contemporary film: the care of shot selection that previous generations deployed, and that barely exists in today?s sloppy."
