Luc Dardenne

Reviews

The Son (2002)

By Mark Labowskie

The Dardenne brothers are such conscientious filmmakers -- they know how to photograph an idea -- but sometimes their style has the effect of making life seem smaller, simpler, and less interesting than it really is. [7 December 2006]

Lenfant (2006)

By Cynthia Fuchs

Winner of the 2005 Palme d'Or at the Cannes, L'enfant takes an abrupt turn that's not so startling as it initially seems. [24 March 2006]

The Son (Le Fils) (2003)

By Elbert Ventura

Unfailingly disciplined, the Dardennes resist glib payoffs and easy answers. [16 January 2003]
