Murmur of the Heart
(DVD)
DIRECTED BY - Louis Malle
While convalescing at a health retreat, a sensitive and sexually curious teenage boy explores his identity, with a little help from his doting mother. The tender direction belies the film's provocative sexual themes, which caused it to be almost banned in France upon its release.
