our selection for Saturday November 23

This evening, we sit on France 4 for a film by Ozon on the wounds of war, then to enjoy a beautiful doc on Bernard Blier. Otherwise, for a family evening, head to Gulli!

War wounded: “Frantz”

At the grave of Frantz, a German soldier who died in combat, Anna discovers a French friend of her fiancé. “My only injury is Frantz,” says the one who will hit this family. Between audacity and lyricism, Ozon creates a beautiful film about the wounds of survivors of the Great War.

At 9 p.m. on France 4. Film directed by François Ozon (France/Germany, 2016). 1h50. With Pierre Niney and Paula Beer. Rebroadcast.

By Toutatis: “The Twelve Labors of Asterix”

If you have never seen this animated film, sit down with the children – or without – in front of this original scenario of the adventures of the most famous Gaul in comics. The labors of Hercules seem to pale in comparison to challenges such as obtaining the A38 pass in an administration!

At 9:05 p.m. on Gulli. Animated film directed by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo (France, 1976). 1h40. Rebroadcast.

Cinema monument: “Bernard Blier, puzzle style”

You are rather Les Tontons Flingueurs, Cold Buffet or Quai des Orfèvres ? This doc retraces the career choices, films and friendships of Father Blier, nicely told by his son, Bertrand, and by Fabrice Luchini.

At 10:50 p.m. on France 4. Documentary directed by Jean-Philippe Guerand and Christophe Duchiron (France, 2020). 1h10. Rebroadcast.
