Catching up on movies


Three films I loved watching this (almost) past holiday.  Monsieur Lazhar is a 2011 French Canadian film about an Algerian immigrant who replaces a teacher who committed suicide.  He helps the class deal with their grief and trauma while dealing with his own sorrow. La delicatesse is a 2012 French film, featuring Audrey Tautou, about a woman who loses the love of her life and gradually learns to open her heart again.  The door features Helen Mirren and was produced in 2012 in Bulgaria. It tells a surprising story about a writer and her maid.
