Tell No One

2006 / Guillaume Canet > Gripping from the get go, the manner in which Tell No One unravels is both exhausting and exciting. Canet’s complex plotline is a gem that’s further enhanced by a simply terrific performance from Francois Cluzet, stunning, ambient cinematography and the inclusion of sporadic English music that adds to the mood while seamlessly fitting into the French setting. In short, it remains the type of murder mystery/thriller that we’ve seen again and again, but the veil on it is so thick with heart and intensity that we forget about past experiences and get sucked in without fail.
