	AU REVOIR LES ENFANTS France, 1987, Not rated, 128 min Directed by Louis Malle. With with Raphael Fetjo, Gaspard Manesse and Francine Racette. PG Friday, March 16 @ Alliance française Miami - 6:45 pm Alliance française members free - Non member $5 A French boarding school run by priests seems to be a safe haven from World War II until a new student arrives. He becomes the roommate of top student in his class. Rivals at first, the roommates form a bond and share a secret. Nominated for 2 Oscars – another 25 wins and 9 nominations. “It really happened. That's the point of Louis Malle's tragic "Au Revoir Les Enfants" ("Goodbye, Children") and late in the movie, a tragic and true incident draws the tears. But Malle drums his stylistic fingers until that moment, content with vignettes that are minimally involving. (…) By many other directors' standards, "Au Revoir" would be a major achievement. But Malle has reached higher. If he'd made his childhood movie earlier in his career -- when he didn't have the sense to be so dispassionate -- it might have packed a meatier punch. Now it's just a deftly aimed poke. “ Desson Howe, the Washington Post Special thanks to the Cultural Services of the French Embassy, Miami Dade College and Institut français Complete serie program “Films Historiques” Third Friday of the month - 6:45 pm @ MDC Tower Theater, Miami First Friday of the month - 6:45 pm @ Alliance française Miami Le destin more Les caprices d'un fleuve more Vénus noire more La France more Indigènes more
