Still available on Netflix for a few weeks and apparently won the jury prize at Cannes in 1991. That is difficult to understand, because the film is hardly worth watching. For the most part, this can be attributed to the abysmal acting: almost everyone overacts, although the roles are also written in a clichéd manner. Furthermore, it is hysterical stuff with a lot of screaming and everything has to be fast-fast all the time, but actually you are waiting all the time for the Frenchman to be released and that is the story. By the way, it starts with an unintentionally funny depiction of what a war photographer does, apparently running through hails of bullets in the first line, even pushing the fighters aside. The shots of Beirut are really the only thing worth seeing about Hors la vie.
