  The first instalment of the late Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski's trilogy on Liberty Equality and Fraternity the three colours of the French flag. Blue is the most sombre of the three a movie dominated by feelings of grief. As the film begins a car accident claims the life of a well-known composer. His wife played by Juliette Binoche (Oscar winner for The English Patient) does not so much put the pieces of her life back together as start an entirely new existence. She moves to Paris where she dissolves into a wordless life virtually without other people. Kieslowski attaches an almost subconscious significance to the colour blue but primarily he focuses on Binoche's luminous face and the way her subtle shifts in emotion flicker and disappear. The picture may be more enigmatic than the follow-ups White and Red but Binoche's quiet heartbreaking presence becomes spellbinding; her performance won the best actress prize at the Venice Film Festival in 1993.

• La veuve de Saint-Pierre - DVD | DVD | (13/06/2011) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  The "widow" referred to in the title of La Veuve de Saint-Pierre isn't a woman, but a mechanism--to be exact, the guillotine, (though the title does take on a second meaning in the tragic final moments of the film). We're on the island of Saint-Pierre, a tiny forgotten French colony off the coast of Newfoundland, midway through the 19th century. A senseless drunken murder is committed and the killer is condemned to death, but zut alors!, there's no guillotine on the island. So one must be requested from the slow, bureaucratic authorities in Paris and, once approved, laboriously shipped over. Meanwhile the killer, a simple-minded giant of a man, is placed in the custody of the Captain, whose beautiful wife starts taking an interest in the prisoner. Director Patrice Leconte has always had an acute feel for place and period--he directed the mordantly witty costume drama Ridicule--and La Veuve vividly captures the sense of remoteness and resentful isolation of this blizzard-swept community. The brooding landscape, all slate-blues and greys, is beautifully framed by Eduardo Serra's camera, and Leconte draws affecting performances from his central trio of actors: Daniel Auteuil, with his intriguingly lopsided face, as the Captain; Juliette Binoche, radiantly vulnerable as his wife; and, in an unexpected but remarkably successful bit of casting, Serbian film director Emir Kusturica as the condemned man. La Veuve de Saint-Pierre may be a touch over-solemn at times, and its message is hardly unexpected; but it's an intelligent, engrossing and richly atmospheric piece of filmmaking. --Philip Kemp

The events of the film take place during hearings conducted in 1996 by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.

During the proceedings, she meets Langston Whitfield an American covering the matter for the Washington Post. Initially, the two don't get along.
