Courted (L'Hermine)
Sunday, November 20, at 8.30 PM ET on TV5MONDE.
Michel Racine, a criminal court judge in the process of divorcing, is more cantankerous than ever. But when preparing to judge a case of child-murder he is moved to learn that Ditte is on the jury. He was once in love with this woman. Without knowing it, she broke his heart.
"Fitfully entertaining, with some grabby trial scenes." - Time Out
"Vincent has a gift for notching up comic detail in the margins: the flu-ridden judge being injected by his doctor in the buttock; his insistence on the proper courtroom terms of address." - The Guardian
