35 Shots of Rhum

Dir: Claire Denis
Starring: Alex Descas, Mati Diop

Ah, Paris. Narry Borman spent a few years there in belle epoque, mixing with such characters as Hemingway, Vian, and a young Johnny Depp.

This modern tale of life in the beautiful city is a work of staggering beauty. There's depth, beauty, romance, and even rum.

The story centres around four characters who inhabit the same apartment building. Twisted histories, potential futures, pet cats... it's such a good film.

Oh, and it has Mati Diop... (*wipes drool from chin*)

Rating: Top Work
