Based on Victor Hugo's classic novel, this is an epic tale of love, honour and obsession. Jean Valjean (Gerard Depardieu) is on the run after a theft and finally settles in a remote town where he devotes himself to the care of the poor.

But he is hunted by Javert (John Malkovich), a policeman whose lifelong search for Valjean has become an obsession.

Trop Belle Pour Toi -
Finding himself strangely attracted to his new, but rather plain secretary, a successful car dealer embarks on a passionate affair despite having a beautiful, sophisticated wife. In spite of his previous casual liaisons, this time his wife senses a difference and finds it harder to dismiss the relationship so easily.

The Return of Martin Guerre -
Based on a true story, a young man returns to his wife and native village after being away for several years. Although much changed from the quiet boy who left, he is readily accepted back, particularly by his wife. However, when the question of an inheritance arises, he is accused of being an imposter - is he the real Martin Guerre?

The Count of Monte Cristo -
Edmond Dantes, a young French sailor, is falsely denounced as a political traitor and unjustly imprisoned for eighteen years without trial. After a daring escape, Dantes flees to the island of Monte Cristo where he finds a treasure of gold and jewels bequeathed to him by a dying inmate. Using these riches, he assumes a new identity and devises a plan to take vengeance on all who betrayed him.
