The Green Planet

This movie gives a new perspective about things. It goes way beyond our roots as human beings and teach us to appreciate the very basic of out way of life.

Since it was written, directed and acted by Coline Serreau, whose mind have created one of the most interesting "futures" or "origins" of the human race. Because it differs from all the robots, clones, zombies, chaos, destruction, desolation, etc. that we have seen across the ages.

Humorously presented, it touches a very special feeling in us as humans and leaves us thinking why, really, are we here.

It may be kind of hard to see for some people because it touches all of our main aspects in life: politics, religion, classes and races. But make no mistake, this picture should be seen by everybody. You won't regret.

When I first saw this movie on Youtube, I was amazed about the foresight of her maker, Coline Serreau. That's why it's a shame after its release in 1996 this movie was banned in the EU and neglected in the rest of the World. It was far ahead of its time, and the ones who banned it knew that it would change the people, as a result of which they would lose their power. However, times have changed and the DVD can now be downloaded for free at www.romanovs.info/labelleverte.php with English, Russian or Portuguese subtitles. This movie is no SF anymore but will be our true reality in the next few years. Dear ones, watch this amazing movie, and let it change you, so that you can change the world.

La Belle verte is directed by Colline Serreau,a talented woman film maker from France who made us all laugh with joy with her 1985 film "Trois hommes et un couffin".Her film is probably the only French film of recent times that talks of nature,environment and importance of greenery in our daily existence.In La Belle verte,we see how an alien lady from a green planet descend on French capital Paris in order to gather information about the status of greenery. What follows is absolutely shocking for this alien person as she learns that earth's inhabitants have almost no respect for nature,greenery and environment. Apart from its pro nature stance,La Belle verte is also a searing attack on consumerist society where modern human beings have no idea of nature's power.This forces them to eat meat,listen to music which is nothing but cacophony.An important role in this film is played by Colline Serreau who is effective as Mila,lady from green planet.Thanks to a DVD box set of Colline Serreau's films,la Belle verte is enjoying renewed popularity as a film that has highlighted mother earth's plight.

Once again I am struck by the original talent of Coline Serreau, who shows in "la Belle Verte", in a very simple and yet beautifully profound way, all the insane sides of humanity. Very much unlike her later film "Chaos" (2001) ,the choice of style and expression for "La Belle Verte" is a very undemanding form of comedy, which gives the movie an altogether very light tone, totally free of complexions and not at all inviting to intellectual debate. She simply points to the almost ridiculously obvious differences between a life of beauty and respect of life and one of disease, stress and egoic battle. Interesting is off course also to see the director herself in the leading part. Merci Madame! /Henrik Ajax

If you don't understand French you are gonna miss a lot in this film because the dialogues are incredible. It was really difficult to get a hold of this film in France and after seeing it I understand why. It shows our society for what it is and how we are all just a bunch of sheep following the leader. No one wants to be shown that they are a sheep, so its no wonder this film received very little exposure. I will make sure that everyone I know will see this movie and make sure that all their friends see it too. Its a wake up call that was made over 10 years ago and we still haven't understood the message. Every high schooler, every college student should see this film, you should see this film. Its a film that calls for change. Loved it.
