I had heard about Un Prophete through watching the BBC news one morning. They were talking about what films had impressed at Cannes in 2009. It looked like the kind of film that I like. Gritty, realistic and emotional. It had been receiving excellent reviews across the world and had been compared to another favourite of mine La Haine. I finally got round to watching it last week and it lives up to the reviews it has been getting. It’s stunning.
