  A movie that had its moments. The film itself seems to suffer from a lack of momentum; it strives to be an epic, but ends up being just a decent family drama. Beautfiul to look at, nonetheless. Good actors. Way long....

  Indochine exposes a journey to freedom that narrates the clash of cultural and political paradigms set colonial French Indochina. A film, which in itself a revolution, a stand on issues of colonialism and resistance, culture and politics, and history and tradition made relevant for the consumption of general viewership by infusing human interest schemes. Meaningful. Inspiring. A national treasure.

  Another pointed reminder why the French -- and the US after them -- were destined not to succeed in Vietnam. It's all about that maniacal empire building impulse, and all those "superior" countries that have tried to do it over the years in different countries all over the globe. <p>It's a cliché: History really does repeat itself -- over and over again. Clichés often become clichés because they are true. History sadly repeats itself, but no one ever seems to learn the appropriate lessons when it comes to activities like trying to take over other countries and subjugating other people.

  Lush locations, beautifully shot, romance, deceit and "la Deneuve". What more can you ask for?

  This has to be one of my favorite foreign film's. Indochine has such beautiful locations in Asia along the actors like Catherine Deneuve. Catherine is radiant in this film as an older wealthy woman whom has an affair with a younger man...check it out!

  I disagree that this is like watching paint dry -- Accurate or not, it covers a significant period in VietNam's history and after living thru the War, I loved this movie as a background to our conflict, and Catherine Deneuve IS a goddess in this movie!

  It has been now seventeen years after Indochine film release,but I was pleased on every level.The location was beautiful, and so was the cinematography, acting, casting, plot,dialogue all were in beautiful harmony. The director did not hide anything from showing characters who experience anger, insult, jealousy, and pain. It was a romantic film in a different setting than we are used to watch, but the movie has a lot more to offer than only being romantic. It shows the monstrous behavior of the French towards the local people,the Rubber Industry and the rise of Communism. It was the French that got involved in war with Vietnam at first and later to be continued by the Americans in 1969. So it was a lesson in history wrapped in a paper of drama romance with marvelous acting and landscapes. I was touched and amazed by this film and I recommend to all who has great taste for good films.
