Movie Reviews of Forbidden Games: The Criterion Collection
Movie Review: 3.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 5 Stars
The Bottom Line:
A wonderful, simple story of two children during wartime who become friends and attempt to understand war and death, Forbidden Games is an accessible and involving story that culls good performances from its young leads and ends on an appropriately downbeat note: it's quite a film.
Summary of Forbidden Games: The Criterion Collection
A timeless evocation of the loss of innocence, Ren? Cl?ment's devastating Forbidden Games tells the story of a young orphan and her friend forced to fend for themselves in World War II France. Featuring brilliant performances from its child stars, the film won the 1952 Academy Award for Best Foreign Film and remains a singular, breathtaking cinematic achievement.Art House & International DVD Video
