Synopsis
A shrewd performance by Simon Abkarian leads this blockbuster account of the wartime leader’s career as he ascends to political dominance
After more than five years in the making, Antonin Baudry’s deftly drawn geopolitical thriller DE GAULLE: LIBERTÉ is the second part of a duology about the statesman and former President of France. In January 1943, preparations are underway for the Casablanca Conference, which could well seal the fate of a France placed under Anglo-Saxon control. But De Gaulle (Simon Abkarian) believes in a free and sovereign France, and he is prepared to realise his hope, to confront on Moroccan soil both General Giraud (Thierry Lhermitte), a dignitary put forward by the United States who has no qualms about collaborating with the collaborators, as well as President Roosevelt (Campbell Scott), who has a firm vision of a Europe with redrawn borders, where France would be severely diminished.
French and English with English subtitles.
Screening at Luna Leederville, Luna on SX and the Windsor Cinema from April 1, 2027.

Reviews
★★★★ A rousingly watchable movie, a French production in the spirit of J Lee Thompson or John Sturges.
A proper epic, done just right.
The film does not merely aim to reconstruct events, but seeks to resurrect a legend.
