Adeus, Meninos
Au Revoir, Les Enfants
França, 1987
Dir.: Louis Malle
"A film that is both very perceptive about child psychology and deeply moving, Au revoir, les enfants is easily one of Louis Malles’s best films - if not his best film. Drawn from his own personal recollections of school during the war, this film tells a simple story with no clear message or morale standpoint. It relates the day-to-day experiences of children in a boarding school in a way that is more realism than nostalgia, without major incident until the final, tragic conclusion. (...) The film’s strength - and Malle’s great achievement - is in portraying the children as fully-formed adults, with an awareness (if not a full understanding) of their predicament and the ability to consciously act for good or ill. This avoids the sentimentality which weighs down many films about children and the result is a very watchable and genuinely engaging film." James Travers
