Jean-Jacques Annaud

What makes a Jean-Jacques Annaud film a Jean-Jacques Annaud film

Across 8 films, they run much less playfulness, somewhat more ambiguity and somewhat more melancholy than films in general. Their films resemble each other more than chance would account for, though not unusually so.

The line down the middle is the average film. A bar to the right means more of that reading than films in general, to the left less. Drawn from every film of theirs in the catalogue, not a selection.
