Weekly Volcano's Review

Roger Ebert on March 31st, 2010

Favorite This Like this Movie? You can Favorite it on your Profile.

An unformed young man is imprisoned, and behind bars he terrifyingly comes of age.  A remorseless consideration of the birth of a killer.  With Tahar Rahim as the clueless young prisoner and Niels Arestrup as the powerful boss of the gang controlling the prison.  Swept the 2010 Cesar awards ("the French Oscars"), won the Grand Jury Prize at Cannes 2009, a 2010 Oscar nominee for best foreign film.  Directed by Jacques Audiard. - Three stars
