Daniel Auteuil stars as the titular knight, an immortal adventurer named Guillaume de Montauban who was scarred in a terrible fire. Naïve teenager Felix de Sisteron (Nicolas Nollet) wanders out to join the hero on his adventures. Meanwhile, Guillaume travels with Raoul de Vautadour (Sergi Lopez), a man who unwittingly turns into a wild beast at night. Gilbert Melki plays the bad guy, Micholas Mespoulede. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide

Gilles Paquet-Brenner's psychologically-tinged, French-language action thriller Les Jolies Choses (AKA Pretty Things, 2001) stars Marion Cotillard in a rare double role as identical twins Lucie and Marie. Lucie, who works as a white-hot fashion model, exhibits a dominant, often controlling, "Type A" personality, whereas Marie consistently projects a backward, reserved, laconic and unassuming attitude. When Lucie receives a covetable French recording contract, a significant problem stands in her way: the inability to sing. Marie possesses the voice of an angel, however, and quickly jets off to Paris to stand in for her sister, unannounced - little realizing the dangerous and even violent string of consequences that she is igniting. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
