700 French journalists and film critics agree, Laurent Cantet‘s The Class is the best film of the year. The 10th edition of the Étoiles d’or group places the film in the best position for a (the French equivalent of the Oscars) César win for Best Picture. Curiously, the same group of journalists and critics thought Arnaud Desplechin merited the Best Director prize for Un conte de Noël. For a look back at a decade’s worth of winners I pulled up a wikipedia list here and in two sundays from now I’ll be pulling a little towards Cantet’s side for the Best Foreign Picture Oscar. We can expect some stiff compo from Ari Folman‘s just as deserving Waltz with Bashir.
