French Movies
Anatomy of a Fall won the Palme d'Or at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. It is a clever and compelling drama about a woman who must prove her innocence after the unexpected death of her husband. It's not quite a mystery/whodunnit, or a full-blown courtroom drama. And it's not a foreign movie either, as it slips in and out of English and French. https://www.hulu.com/movie/anatomy-of-a-fall-94f53938-6240-42b4-abef-8be1d1c39d72?entity_id=94f53938-6240-42b4-abef-8be1d1c39d72
