Le Comte de Monte-Cristo (2024) ***
It's not a faithful adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' famous novel, but it's still a very impressive film.
Emilia Perez (2024) ***
Surprising French film set in Mexico, with a story straight out of a Latin American telenovela, stunning musical numbers, a powerful political message and superlative acting performances from Karla Sofia Gascon, Selena Gomez, Zoe Saldana and Adriana Paz (who all won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival).
Rabia (2024) ***
Shocking film about young girls joining ISIS to marry Islamic fighters in Syria. Based on a true story.
