Indochine [1991]

starring: Catherine Deneuve, Vincent Perez, Linh Dan Pham, Jean Yanne, Dominique Blanc
directed by: Régis Wargnier

Release Date July 30, 2001
In its day a casualty of the chaos and confusion surrounding the frequently ridiculous entry qualifications for the Best Foreign Film Oscar - many superior films were ruled ineligible and those it was competing against were scarcely representative of the world's best - Indochine may not be great art, but it is an enjoyable example of the kind of old-fashioned good storytelling that Hollywood rarely produces anymore.

Set against the last days of the French occupation of what was to later become Vietnam, it uses the relationship between Catherine Deneuve's French plantation owner and her adopted Vietnamese daughter (Linh Dan Pham) as a mirror for the relationship between France and Vietnam. Like the American South, for the privileged ... Read More:

East West [1999]

starring: Sandrine Bonnaire, Tania Massalitinova, Bogdan Stupka, Ruben Tupiero, Oleg Menshikov
directed by: Regis Wargnier

Release Date March 24, 2003
While the Germans have taken on their past with the likes of Downfall, Das Boot and Stalingrad, the Russians have not. So, here is a French film instead. East West is very good and will strike a cord with anyone familiar with the Soviet Paradise myth.

While Deneuve is prominant on the cover, she appears late in the film and her role is really a beefy cameo. However, she does put some work into her performance and you can't say that about a lot of her recent films. Of the films she made in the Nineties that got distributed in Britain, she is as good here as in Indochine and Ma Saison Prefere and better than Place Vendome and Les Voleurs.
