About Secteur postal 89098
In this film, Philippe Durand wanted to express all that his experience of the Algerian war left in him, as physical and moral bruises. It is a love film, it shows the daily life in France of the fiancée that the young called left and who fights against absence. He drew a close correspondence between this girl, who was harmed by the accidents of daily life, and that boy was soiled by what was forced to do for the superior needs of pacification.
Directed by Philippe Durand, Secteur postal 89098 leans on a strong ensemble — Nathalie Pascoe, Claude Debord, Claude Hainault — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1959.

A star is born in a time of both celebration and instability in this historical drama with music from director Christophe Barratier. In the spring of 1936, Paris is in a state of uncertainty; while the rise of the Third Reich in Germany worries many, a leftist union-oriented candidate, Léon Blum, has been voted into power, and organized labor is feeling its new power by standing up to management.
