It feels like women are the ones left imprisoned by this narrative, seeking a freedom these filmmakers are reticent to give.

It seems to have all the elements to create a compelling and entertaining narrative but never figures out how to bring them together into a satisfying whole.

Rated: 2/4

Freedom is truly a passion project, a swan song from Laurent’s creative mind about a French tale that she misses watching unfold on screen.

Freedom features rock-solid writing, direction and performances. It moves expeditiously, and with plenty of style – and just enough substance to warrant a watch.

Libre (2024) Based on the Story of the Polite Thief Bruno Sulak (11,827 –12 Jul 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) In the end of the 70’s and 80’s, the thief Bruno Sulak (Lucas Bravo), his beloved girlfriend Annie Bragnier (Léa Luce Busato) and his friends stole several supermarkets and jewelries in France, always in a polite way. “Libre” (2024) is a fictitious story based on true events and the “modus-operandi” of the notorious thief by the marvelous Mélanie Laurent. Bruno Sulak is compared to the fictious French thief Arsène Lupin, created in 1905 by the French writer Maurice Leblanc. Although underrated by critics, the direction, cinematography and music score are also excellent. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): Not Available My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/

Una performance magnetica di Lucas Bravo e un'ambientazione fedele agli anni '70-'80, il film mescola crime e romanticismo, offrendo un'esperienza coinvolgente

The Windmills of your mind scene is incredible. Cinematically clever. Michel Legrand is smiling up there. Bravo Mélanie Laurent !
