'De Gaulle: Liberté': Can France's biggest film of the year win over audiences? Issued on: France's biggest film gamble of the year arrives in cinemas as "De Gaulle: Liberté" returns with its second chapter – a €74 million historical epic that's betting big on international audiences. Film critic Manon Kerjean breaks down whether the ambitious biopic succeeds as a wartime thriller rather than a traditional war movie. Plus, the Minions are back. The little yellow troublemakers created by French animator Pierre Coffin head to 1920s Hollywood in "Minions & Monsters", opening as the star attraction at the Annecy Animation Festival. And from blockbuster animation to experimental cinema, we review "Vertigo", the first animated feature from maverick French filmmaker Quentin Dupieux, whose surreal vision turns video game graphics into a meditation on reality itself. From De Gaulle to Minions and the future of animation, this week's arts24 explores the films shaping France's summer cinema season.
