Less sentimental than I expected and useful lessons in rhetoric and cross-cultural misunderstandings. Some interesting twists. Camélia Jordana was riveting and Daniel Auteuil was restrained but funny. They seemed to enjoy themselves, which made it enjoyable for me.

The movie is ridiculous from the get go in that the audience is suppose ti believe in the year 2018 a distinguished Professor of Law at a prestigious University in Paris could be such an out and out bigot and raciest. and he seems to be proud of his feelings. Dumb. we find this out within the first 5 minutes of the movie. After that one could leave the theater and write the continuation of the script since the story is soooo obvious. HOWEVER, the movie is worth going to just to watch great acting. Daniel Auteuil and Nozha Khouadra are perfect..

The characters are compelling enough to avoid turning into major clichs, while stars Camelia Jordana and Daniel Auteuil prove to be a winning pair.

El Pais (Spain)

Le Brio is a supposedly enlightened film of high culture that succumbs to the formals of multiplex cinema. [Full Review in Spanish]

Beyond the endearing acting of Daniel Auteuil and Camlia Jordana, that combination of emotion and intelligence is what elevates Le Brio... [Full review in Spanish]
