Tag / Bruno Dumont

Vie de Jesus, La (1997)

  • Criterion Collection, Dumont, Bruno
  • 1997, Bruno Dumont, France

A fascinating feature debut by Dumont, who captures the tedium of French countryside life by finding beauty in the mundane and the horrific in the nonchalant, working with non-professional actors with aplomb.   

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3 out of 5.
