Director: Jacques Audiard
Rated: R
Length: 120 min.
This inspirational French film takes you down a path of depression, recovery and the bond of love. The ever-so-lovely Marion Cotillard (Stephanie) shines through as a recovering amputee who discovers a reason to live after losing both of her legs. Matthais Scohenaerts (Alain van Versch) plays the role of the "macho" single father who's involved with multiple women and an illegal fighting ring. Initially Alain just sees Stephanie as a helpless sex object with whom he shows little emotions towards, but as their relationship develops he realizes what she truly means to him and finally tells her what he's been suppressing for so long. This is a fantastically moving film, and although the sexuality is a little explicit at times, it is a beautiful portrayal about how love can triumph over any feat. Must see. Rust and Bone.
