让哈维·德·莱斯特拉德曾执导多部犯罪题材纪录片，包括2001年赢得奥斯卡的《周日早晨谋杀案》。本片是他首度用剧情片方式展现犯罪心理。28岁的主人公刚刚出狱，他人生一半时间都在那里度过。回到家乡后他遇上了艾米丽并为她着迷，直到有一天他走上前去说“嗨，是我”，却引发了艾米丽的惊声尖叫。两人的过去有着怎样的联系？

影片讲述的是法国著名作家大仲马（Alexandre Dumas l802～1870）和他在助手奥古斯特·马科（Auguste Maquet 1813～1888)之间的真实故事。 马科生于1813年的巴黎，曾在公立查理曼中学就读，18岁成为历史学教授。之后，他转向文学领域。1838年，他通过内瓦尔，结识了当时已经非常知名的大仲马。他开始大仲马提供小说素材，概述情节和打草稿，还执笔写了很多作品的开头几章，包括《三个火枪手》和《基督山伯爵》。而大仲马则主要负责刻画人物形象，构建情节，并撰写所有重要章节的结尾，通常设置悬念以吸引读者。他声称只有当故事在头脑里全部完成后才开始动笔。就这样，大仲马领导了一个庞大的小说制造车间，分工合作，将一部部的小说源源不断地推向市场。大仲马总共写了约250部小说，但如此卷帙浩繁的作品并非都出自他一人之手，而是同73名助手合作的结果，从中不难看出他的精明之处。马科的名字是不会出现在书的扉页上的，作为回报，他得到了慷慨的酬劳。 影片的故事的背景是在1848年2月，此时正是大仲马的高峰期。他隐退在城堡里，与他的合作者助手奥古斯特·马科一起创作。他们相识十年来，马科仍然生活在这位伟人的影子下...

2000 film by Bernard Rapp

Fleeing the June 1940 arrival of Hitler's army in Paris, a young war widow and her two children are rescued from dive-bombing German fighters by a cocky, reckless teenager. He finds them refuge in an abandoned house, but despite the fact that the family quickly comes to be depending much on his cunning and survival abilities, their cohabitation proves uneasy.

This gripping historical drama recounts the story of Armenian-born Missak Manouchian, a woodworker and political activist who led an immigrant laborer division of the Parisian Resistance on 30 operations against the Nazis in 1943. The Nazis branded the group an Army of Crime, an anti-immigrant propaganda stunt that backfired as the team's members became martyrs for the Resistance.
