The Boston French Film Festival returns with a hand-picked lineup of the year’s most lauded Gallic cinema, ranging from stirring dramas to star-studded comedies. A host of France’s biggest names grace our screen this year: Marion Cotillard leads the devastating docudrama Little Girl Blue with a César Award-winning performance; Romain Duris heads the lauded sci-fi epic The Animal Kingdom; Isabelle Huppert vamps in the charming period comedy The Crime is Mine; Juliette Binoche, Adele Exarchopoulos, Camille Cottin, Bertrand Bonello and François Ozon each add their own je ne sais quoi to a sparkling lineup. Grab a Francophile friend and celebrate some of the world’s best cinema with this beloved summer tradition.
An encore screening of Auction has been added on October 13 due to popular demand; tickets go on sale August 27 at mfa.org/film.
