Ben Croll takes us through four films from the Cannes Film Festival which are being released in cinemas this week. One of France’s biggest film events of the year is Antonin Baudry’s “De Gaulle: Resistance”, the first of a two-part WWII epic centred on French general Charles de Gaulle, from the fall of France in 1940 to the liberation in 1945. Ben tells us why this film is part of a new trend of French blockbusters focused on uniquely French stories.
