feel like watching =\ Title: Le code a changé Director: Danièle Thompson Castings:Patrick Bruel , Emmanuelle Seigner , Christopher Thompson , Marina Hands , Patrick Chesnais , Blanca Li , Laurent Stocker , Pierre Arditi ... Year: 2009 Length: 70 min. Date added: 8 January 2009 Class No: DVD 371 Subtitle: French & English Synopsis: Recalling such prior successes as The Big Chill, Peter's Friends and Return of the Secaucus 7, director Daniele Thompson's seriocomedy A Change of Plans follows a group of four French couples who converge in an apartment over the course of one lengthy summer's eve and spend the time chatting about life, personal goals, relationships and sex. The said event unfurls during the perennial "Fete de la musique" in the City of Lights. Attendees include: the shark-like divorce attorney who owns the apartment, M.L. (Karin Viard) and her out-of-work husband Piotr (Dany Boon); slick, unctuous attorney Lucas (Patrick Thompson) and his slightly stuck-up homemaker wife Sarah (Emmanuelle Seigner); gynecologist Melanie (Marina Fois) and her oncologist husband Alain (Patrick Bruel); and M.L.'s sister Juliette (Marina Hands) and her much older boyfriend Erwann (Patrick Chesnais). As the night unfurls, it becomes readily apparent that none of the partners are happy and that virtually all have cheated or are planning on cheating on each other, which turns the film into an extended meditation on dissatisfaction and infidelity among the Parisian upper-crust. Un dîner, c'est la dictature de l'apparence : on se fait beau, on rit, on raconte, on frime, on partage souvenirs et projets; Les angoisses sont cachées sous l'humour et les chagrins étouffés par les éclats de rire. Et pour quelques heures, on y croit ! C'est ça le principal... Si on a le bon code et que l'on respecte les autres, cordialité, hypocrisie, bonne humeur, on risque de passer une bonne soirée... Mais les masques tombent dès le chemin du retour. Title: Amen Director: Costa Gavras Castings:Ulrich Tukur, Mathieu Kassovitz, Ulrich Mühe , Michel Duchaussoy, Ion Caramitru... Year: 2002 Length: 126 min Date added: 8 January 2010 Class No: DVD 372 Subtitle: English Synopsis: During World War II, Kurt Gerstein is a scientific officer working for the SS on disinfection and water purification projects. When he discovers that a compound he has developed is to be used for mass gassing of Jews in concentration camps he is appalled and resolves to tell the world of the unfolding horror. His attempts to alert the Catholic Church fall on deaf ears until he meets a young Jesuit priest, Riccard Fontana. The two men make repeated attempts to bring news of the systematic slaughter of Jewish families to the outside world. Both are driven by the conviction that once the public hear of this atrocity, the Nazis will put an end to it. However, it soon becomes clear that they are powerless to change things. Neither the American ambassador nor the Pope is able to speak out against the unseen massacre. Meanwhile, every day, tens of thousands of Jews are stripped naked and herded into the gas chambers... Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Kurt Gerstein, un officier SS allemand, épaulé par un jeune jésuite, Ricardo Fontana, tente d'informer le Pape Pie XII et les Alliés du génocide des Juifs organisé par les nazis dans les camps de concentration...
