Lotterywest Festival Films :: I've Loved You So Long

I've Loved You So Long

Director: Philippe Claudel · 115min · M
In French with subtitles


This is a powerful, engrossing story of familial struggles and redemption – about people coming to terms with a traumatic past and renewing emotional ties so that they can move on and start a new life.

A shell-shocked Juliette (Kristen Scott Thomas) returns to live with her younger sister Lea and her husband – after being away for 15 years. Lea must grapple with memories of her sister’s past while Juliette needs to find her place in the world and acceptance from those around her.

An enormous critical and box office success in France, this is a beautiful movie about life, love and loss.

Golden Globe Nominee: Best Foreign Film, Ecumenical Jury Prize and Prize of the Reader Jury of the Berliner Morgenpost, Berlin Film Festival 2008

A magnificently nuanced performance from Kristen Scott Thomas sets the tone in Philippe Claudel’s equally subtle debut film. Scott Thomas is so overpowering a presence that after a certain point, she owns this movie … nothing less than brilliant
