I saw this film first whilst in college and frankly it's been a very tough time finding a better film since. The film is basically a tale of three youths from one of Paris' run down outskirt estates who find a policemans weapon and contemplate reaping revenge for their friend who was shot during a riot. The film protrays the main three characters very well and despite their being novices when the film was made the actors (Vincent Cassel, Hubert Kounde, ...
...the film is wonderful. The black and white works extremely well in augmenting the bleak and brutal world in which the protaganists live. The camerawork is fantastic as well with some remarkable shots and editing. On top of this the music in the film is very fitting and really helps the atmosphere of the film. With strong social and political messages in the film you would think it would be a tad peachy. However, the film is wonderfully balanced and ... Read review

...them need all of these diamonds anyway? Diamonds Are Forever has been described as the first Roger Moore James Bond film and I think there is some truth to this observation. Although Diamonds Are Forever is quite offbeat at times with a very atmospheric score by John Barry that is a major strength, it is also quite jovial in tone. There is a lot more humour in this one in contrast to previous entries. The previous film - On Her Majesty's Secret ... Read review
