Watch Arctic Heart For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

After spending the day watching films from three excellent French New Wave directors,I decided that I would wrap up my French movie viewing day with something completely different. Eyeing Netflix UK's limited French selection, I found a unique-sounding title which led to me putting my heart in the Arctic.View on the film:Moving from shorts to feature films for the first time, writer/director Marie Madinier displays an impressive level of ambition, but an awkwardness in the execution. Starting with scientists looking at mice have sex,the screenplay by Madinier struggles to find a consist tone, via a tender Indie Drama exchange between Christophine and Quignard, (played by a sweet Charlotte Le Bon & Guillaume Canet) being undermined by the very next scene hitting a sex Comedy gag. Frosting the screen up with Claude Miller's former cameraman Pascal Marti ,Madinier appears more sure-footed in the directing style,with the human sex scenes having a breezy mood,and a tasteful use of CGI warming the Arctic heart.

Just saw the movie at a pre-premiere last night in Paris during the Champs-Elysées Film Festival and it's full of quality laughs and gives a fresh view for everyone looking for a relaxing comedy to watch. It also has dramatic elements to touch your heart and, at least for me, quite an unexpected ending. In many ways it resembles a typical french comedy, which is always a good thing since they are usually much more direct and naturalistic. I hope it'll do well with its french release in one week. Stable 8/10 mostly for originality,interesting new view and steady performance from both the charming Charlotte Le Bon and Guillaume Canet :)
