It was interesting to see as many as, oh, 50 people show up at the Magic Lantern Wednesday night to see Leonard Oakland introduce one of his favorite films, Francois Truffaut’s 1962 exploration of romance, "Jules et JIm." It’s always great to hear Oakland talk about cinema, particularly when that cinema is French. I’ve never been especially moved by "Jules et Jim" (I prefer Truffaut’s first feature film, "400 Blows"). But Oakland’s knowledge and passion could get me interested in, say, hedge fund derivatives. And his post-screening talk got me to thinking. Though I often pretend otherwise, I do love French film. The best of French film, that is (if I even begin to consider the worst, I start to burp up my morning croissant)/Dan Webster, SR. More here (including Dan's 10 favorite French films).

Question: Which foreign film is your all-time favorite?
