Les Choristes
'Les Choristes' (which translates in English to 'The Chorus') is a French 2004 film directed by Christophe Barratier about a passionate music teacher who arrives at a correctional boarding school for boys and transforms their lives through music. The film stars Gérard Jugnot as the teacher, and Jean-Baptiste Maunier as one of his students, a musical prodigy. The film was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film; the song "Vois Sur Ton Chemin" (Look To Your Path) was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song. See the full Wikipedia article here.
Has anyone here seen this film? If not I would definitely recommend it. My French class watched it at school over two lessons, with English subtitles (although I understood much of it, I would be lost without them), and I thought it was magnificent. The songs sung by the choir are brilliant, particularly Vois Sur Ton Chemin (you can watch a YouTube video of a performance of this song below, or by clicking here).
