Talking Movies takes a look at some classic French cinema. France boasts one of the most successful and thriving film industries in Europe. Tom Brook and some fellow cineastes pick their favourite French films and tell the stories behind their creation, from 'Breathless', the movie that heralded the French New Wave, to 'Am茅lie', the film that shows Paris to perfection. These are all French films that broke new ground and as we hear from their fans, they feel as vibrant today as when they were first made.
