L'homme de la cave

This movie is all about negationist and the consequences with democracy.

The acting is true regarding the situation and the age of the protagonists.

It brings back sad memories of the french collaboration.

Very well acted but poor script. If you don't know how to finish a movie, do not start it. The spectators pay to be told a story and not to invent it themselves.

Far from his usual awful comedies, François Cluet shines bright in this Hitchcock like story, the kind of topic that the American film industry could also give. It is riveting, intriguing, you are stuck to your seat and it is impossible to do something else whilst watching this film. Acting is over the top with Jeremy Renier and Berenice Béjo. It is so exciting not to be bored by a film, there are so many lousy of them these days. I guess there are many cases like this one every week in France and many audiences could be concerned by this story. I will not spoil it any further but please try it. It is like a rollercoaster, it gets more and more exciting.....And the last thing which I wanted to emphasize on is that movie denounces the denial of Holocaust and Shoah, but in the same time, it points out that Shoah must not let people forget that there also were twelve millions Indians slaughtered during Conquest of the West; See what I mean? Very interesting point of view concerning a film denoucing Auschwitz horrors. But the overall meszge of the film is somewhere very ambiguous, it lest open much much much thinking.... MUCH after viewing.

This is a movie that's meant to question the unquestionable truths. When your perspective of life it's so radical that can't give room for other points of view the right becomes a wrong. The ending (without spoiling it) I think was an analogy of how if we don't understand each other the problems can't fix themselves.

This movie approaches the delicate topic of antisemitism in a very, very surprising way !

Probably only the French could achieve this !

Very good screenplay and great casting !
