Stunning! Fans Want More: Fabrice Luchini’s Best Film Scores 3.8/5, Released Just 3 Years Ago!

This week, Fabrice Luchini appears in Pascal Bonitzer’s film, “Victor Like Everyone Else,” alongside Chiara Mastroianni, Marie Narbonne, and Suzanne de Baecque.

In the film, Luchini portrays Robert Zucchini, a passionate and melancholic actor consumed by the spirit of Victor Hugo. Night after night, he captivates audiences, sharing his love for the written word. His life takes a turn when his estranged daughter reappears… What if, for once, to love is better than to admire?

With the film’s release, discover Fabrice Luchini’s best film according to audience ratings.

With an average audience rating of 3.8 out of 5 stars across 6,955 ratings and 647 reviews, François Ozon’s “My Crime” is the top-rated film on AlloCiné among the 90 films featuring Luchini. It ranks just ahead of “The Women on the 6th Floor” and “Violette Nozière.”

User LeFilCine notes, “Twenty years after ‘8 Women,’ François Ozon returns to the genre that brought him acclaim, namely a theatrically styled comedy with a rich ensemble cast. Despite relying on seasoned actors like Huppert, Luchini, Boon, and Dussollier, the film is carried by two relatively unknown yet talented young actresses, Rebecca Marder and Nadia Tereszkiewicz, who bring a delightful mischief to the uniquely paced story.

Initially, the theatrical dialogue may seem unusual for contemporary cinema, but viewers quickly adjust and appreciate it. Ozon perhaps pushes the boundaries when he has Dany Boon adopt a rather unexpected accent, which seems unnecessary for the narrative. Fabrice Luchini and Isabelle Huppert are particularly persuasive, especially Huppert, who excels in a wildly eccentric role that showcases her comedic talent and adaptability to Ozon’s filmmaking style. The film cleverly addresses feminist themes with anachronistic irony, making it a thoroughly enjoyable experience with its superb cast, cunning script, and distinctive style.

Another user, traversay1, comments, “‘My Crime’ elevates itself with a spectacular entry by Isabelle Huppert, which accelerates the film’s pace into a deliciously grotesque frenzy that’s hard to resist. Ozon deftly weaves modern feminist messages with a light, fluid touch that doesn’t feel out of place in this interwar setting. Nadia Tereszkiewicz and Rebecca Marder form a remarkable duo that stands up to comparison with the rest of the richly-assembled cast. While ‘My Crime’ may not be a major work in Ozon’s oeuvre, it is a delightful interlude that shouldn’t be dismissed lightly.”

Lena Kovaleva rates it 5/5: “A masterpiece filled with laughter, intrigue, and twists. The acting is superb! Thanks for this moment.

Audrey L. adds, “‘My Crime’ captivated us right from the start. Although the opening minutes might feel verbose and theatrical, the film quickly draws us into its message advocating women’s rights, infused subtly throughout the narrative rather than overtly preached. The amusing dialogue (full of misunderstandings and sharp witticisms), along with quickly endearing characters, make it compelling: from an actress seeking fame (Nadia Tereszkiewicz, radiant) to her magnetic best friend (Rebecca Marder), and from a quirky judge (Fabrice Luchini, transcending mere portrayal) to a flamboyant architect (despite a poorly executed Southern accent, Dany Boon’s performance is spot-on), and a scheming blackmailer (Isabelle Huppert, in top form).

The comedic timing is excellent, plot twists are well-timed, and each actor fully embodies their role, creating a cohesive ensemble film where the absence of even one character would cause the structure to collapse. Make sure to stay for the end credits—they’re filled with great jokes. The perfect crime.

For Eric Darbos, it’s “One of the best films I’ve seen in a long time. The storyline and performances, especially by a radiant Isabelle Huppert, had the audience applauding at the end—truly a great pleasure!”

Lastly, L_huitre states, “Cinema remains the most beautiful escape when it evokes an inner delight that causes a blissful smile, a fondness for the characters, boundless admiration for the performers, and a desire to linger beyond the end credits. With ‘My Crime,’ François Ozon has crafted his most charming, joyful, and tasteful film, subtly addressing the status of women in the 1930s, a stark contrast to today’s often bitter societal debates. While not everyone will appreciate this film… what a unique experience to watch these women argue over the ownership of a crime for the fame it brings. The dialogue throughout is deliciously amusing, as each character vies for the spotlight in a media world depicted as frivolous and immoral. This perfect reflection of our times, although set in the 1930s, ends with rare applause from the audience, indicating that the film has indeed hit its mark: making us laugh about societal issues that usually bring us to tears. Outstanding! More, please!”
