Aro Favourite Forbidden Games

 

aka: Jeux Interdits
France 1952, 86 minutes
Dir. Rene Clement
In French with English subtitles
Rating: [PG]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / War

Feat. Georges Poujouly, Brigitte Fossey, Laurence Badie

 

Aroview: After her parents are killed in an air raid during WWII, a small girl makes friends with a peasant boy, and the pair gradually come to terms with the death that surrounds them by building a pet cemetery.

An enchanting film about a brutal subject, this is especially poignant thanks to the terrific central performances from the two children, and remains one of the more haunting depictions of war told through the eyes of innocence.
