In recent times, Successful French Cinema has been divided into two main styles:
1: Cinema Du Look
2: Social Realism

Cinema Du look
Style over substance - Visual rather than narrative
Slick visual style
Idealistic/ fantasy element
Entertaining
Alienated Characters
For Example:
-Amelie
-City Of Lost Children
-Delicatessen

Social Realism
Substance over style - Narrative over visual style
Realistic
Dealt with social concerns
Challenging / thought provoking
Alienated Characters
For Example:
-La Haine ( Hate)
