  • Summary

  • This week we join the French Foreign Legion in Claire Denis' 1999 masterpiece, "Beau Travail." We discuss the film's influences including "Le Petit Soldat" and "Billy Budd, Sailor" as well as the film's beginnings as a TV movie. We then dive into the plot, interpreting and providing context to the story and imagery. Finally, we each pair the film with another for a pair of double bills!

    Thank you so much for listening!
