Robin des Bois, la véritable histoire (2015) Directed by Anthony Marciano
Comedy
Film Synopsis
Robin Hood is a bad 'un, no doubt about it. He and his
good-for-nothing friend Tuck have a simple philosophy - only steal from
women, the poor and the old. The rest are just too risky.
But like everyone else, Robin has his dreams, and his dream is to buy
the busiest brothel in the area, the Pussycat. To raise the funds
to make this dream a reality, Robin and Tuck decide to raid the tax
chests of Nottingham. Their plans go awry when they run into a
rival gang in Sherwood Forest, an odd bunch of losers who rob the rich
to help the poor. Little John, Maid Marion and their friends
happen to have hit on the same idea as Robin, but for somewhat
different motives. Now the real legend of Robin of Sherwood can
begin...

The very best French thrillers
It was American film noir and pulp fiction that kick-started the craze for thrillers in 1950s France and made it one of the most popular and enduring genres.
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
In his letters to his friends and family, Franz Kafka gives us a rich self-portrait that is surprisingly upbeat, nor the angst-ridden soul we might expect.
In the 1920s French cinema was at its most varied and stylish - witness the achievements of Abel Gance, Marcel L'Herbier, Jean Epstein and Jacques Feyder.
