Life of General De Gaulle

1990· 114 min· Drama, History

The first fiction film about de Gaulle. At the origin of the adventure, there is a script commissioned in 1942 from William Faulkner. It lacked the end of the story, and the view of the French of today. The destinies of the great and the small intersect, without meeting. Epics live on dreams as much as on reality.

Cast: Henri Serre, Donald Pleasence, Jean-Philippe Écoffey
