    Vigo was truly a poet of the cinema and one of the very few genuine artists produced by the medium. If you want ravishing images and a cinema of humanity and grace then you must see these fims - they will haunt your imagination.

    Rated - 5 stars [Highly rated reviewer]

    Great stuff.

    L'Atalante is the most romantic and possibly the most beautifully filmed film of all time.Zero de Conduite is a little dated but still we wouldn't have had 'If' without this bizarre masterpiece.

    I''m giving it five marks because it's influential,very enjoyable and the head teacher in Zero de Conduite is a little odd.
