I think we study 'Amelie'. Although my teachers say that it's a good film (though i'm not convinced), i'd much rather take a more literary approach to the coursework component :rolleyes:

Great film. Amazing cinematography, plus great direction by Jeunet.

Take a peek at Kassowitz's La Haine (a film I also studied for A2.) Its very apt considering that the social problems he addressed still haven't been fixed some decade on since the film was made.

I just did Les Liaisons Dangereuses by Choderlos de Laclos - it is absolutely brilliant, really scandalous. There's tons to write about it as well, especially if you're interested in the revolution. However, it is very difficult, and I only got through it with a fair bit of help from my exchange partner :smile:

Madame Bovary is really good too.

Thanks, everybody in year 13 at my school at the moment says that it's fantastic, but it sounds so...girly :confused:

Also, thank-you for advising 'La Haine'...it sounds quite controversial for some reason...and I like controversy :p:

Camus? And that's only because I like Camus.

I'm struggling to remember which novel I did. It was probably "Un Sac de Billes" by Joffo. Its quite easy to read, because its written in the style of a young child.

I'm doing those atm! :five:
