There's little indication that this story requires a telling, or at least a telling by people with such didactic inclinations.

As doomed wartime romances go, the film doesn't offer anything particularly original. But with palpable tension and poignancy, Suite Francaise is fine filmmaking well worth watching.

Dibb's tribute to the author is honourably meant. But his crude distortions do her novel a grave disservice.
