The Path of Excellence is a terrific movie. The movie conveys Sophie’s extracurricular activities in such a way that we’re with this character every step of the way. As Sophie tries to fit in, situations arise which complicate her goals and Jouannet is absolutely amazing. This is a star-making role, for sure. Mermoud’s direction allows us to easily relate to Sophie’s predicament and to root for her from beginning to end. Like America’s Good Will Hunting from 26 years back, you don’t need to have any sort of love for math or physics to enjoy The Path of Excellence. It’s a thought-provoking dramatic movie with an edge that will make you sympathize for the struggle to be great and succeed against all odds. It’s the type of movie that film festivals help audiences discover and is an absolute triumph.
Rating: 9.5/10

Quote:
Both detectives on a sickening murder case struggle with being alone and childless in their 40s. As they investigate the young man found beaten and strangled to death, platonic friends Karine and Herve unravel a love story between Vincent, and Rebecca a high school girl. The teenage lovers quickly plunged into the kind of amour fou the flics fear to chance for themselves. Rebecca is missing, and unknown to her, the boy was a homosexual Internet hustler. The ordinarily blasé male investigator is appalled to find that on-line dating is a world the sexy Karine knows well. Is Rebecca the killer, another victim or?

The post Frédéric Mermoud – Complices AKA Accomplices (2009) first appeared on Cinema of the World.

A grieving woman pursues a couple whom she suspects of killing her son in a hit-and-run.
Equipped with a few items of clothing, a little bit of money, and a weapon, Diane Kramer leaves for Evian. She has a sole obsession: to find the driver of the moka-colored Mercedes who ran over her son and turned her life upside down. But the path of truth has more bends than it appears. Diane discovers that she must confront another woman, both endearing and mysterious.

A lightly Hitchcock-like atmosphere, where fear and guilt take new forms.
