In a series of long interviews, 12 prime ministers talk about their experience in the upper echelons of power. The function of prime minister, torn between the president and the parliament, appointed without necessarily being elected but responsible for everything, is at the center of debate. With the exception of Jacques Chirac (1974-1976 and 1986-1988), deliberately left out because of his image as French President, those who governed France for the past 35 years agreed to discuss the exercise of power, as seen through archive footage, but also how they experienced it personally. Filmed in the same studio and sitting in the same chair, 12 French prime ministers talk freely about their time in office, from their appointment until their resignation.

Escorted by his valet Sganarelle, Dom Juan, a libertine gentleman, brave and hypocritical, seduces women, fights duels, denies his father's authority, and mocks Heaven. Carried away by his passion for women and gambling, he goes so far as to commit perjury. A classic revisited by Mesguich with a lot of visual effects: special effects, magic tricks, imposing sets. A playful staging for this tragi-comic play.

Iranian Iradj Azimi directed this French historical drama re-creating events depicted in the famous 1819 painting The Raft of the Medusa by Jean Louis Andre Theodore Gericault (1791-1824). The ill-fated voyage of the frigate Medusa begins when it departs Rochefort for Senegal in 1816. After striking a sandbar off the African coast, 150 civilians row safely to shore, but Captain Chaumareys (Jean Yanne) orders 140 soldiers and sailors onto a raft (minus supplies) and has it cut loose. Only 14 survive from the 140, creating a scandal back in France. Gericault (Laurent Terzieff) later talks to three of the survivors while researching his painting. Work on this film began in 1987, but sets destroyed by Hurricane Hugo caused delays, so the film was not completed until 1990. However, it then remained undistributed until an incident in which writer-director Azimi slashed his wrists in front of French Ministry of Culture officials.

Very carefully, he plots his revenge.

소위 많이 알려진 사람들의 사생활은 비교적 잘 보호되어 있다. 특히 정치가들의 사생활은 때론 정치생활에 치명타가 될 수도 있기에 철저하게 베일에 가려진 경우가 많다. 미국의 제 3대 대통령이었던 토마스 제퍼슨의 사생활. 실제 제퍼슨은 아내와 사별한 후 독신으로 살았다는 것이 정설이지만, 영화는 그가 아내와 사별한 후 연인을 사귀었고, 또 노예에게도 빠져 들었다는 이야기를 한다. 제퍼슨의 인생에서 유일하고도 전부인 여자가 되고 싶었던 딸은 아버지의 행동에서 혼란을 겪는다. 1780년 파리에서 미국 대사로 재직하던 제퍼슨의 이러한 사생활을 중심으로 영화는 이야기를 풀어간다. '미국 민주주의의 아버지'라고 불리는 제퍼슨조차 인간적 상황을 벗어날 수 없다? 어떤 인간도 사랑이라는 의식적이지 않은 함정을 피해갈 수 없다고 한다면, 한펀으로는 착잡하고 한편으로는 흥미진진하지 않은가? (최상희)

He also asks Allard to care for Hermine, a lass to whom he has been guardian for more than ten years. In flashbacks, from the prison as Lacenaire writes, from Allard's study as he and Hermine read, and from other readers' memory after the book is published, we see Lacenaire's childhood as he stands up to bullies, including priests, his youthful thieving, his first murder, his brief army career, his seduction of a princess, and his affair with Avril, a young man who dies beside him.
