The New York Review of Books
[A] touching and sad story based on events from director Louis Malle's own childhood.
Widescreen Review
...Very moving....The film is a testament to the power of the medium and to the art of the writer-director in dealing with an overwhelming personal experience...
Los Angeles Times
...[AU REVOIR LES ENFANTS is] a work that has the kind of simplicity, ease and density of detail that only a film maker in total command of his craft can bring off, and then only rarely....So moving...
New York Times
Rating: A+ --
[VIDEO ESSAY] "Au Revoir Les Enfants" is a heartbreakingly confessional wartime film made all the more effective by the care with which the subjective story is told. Its sense of loss is profound.

Product Description:
This autobiographical recounting of Malle's most tragic memory begins in 1944 at an all-boy Catholic school. A young boy befriends a new student whom the others feel is different. When he discovers the new student is a Jew, he tells no one and remains a true friend. Tragedy strikes when a school employee tells the Gestapo they are hiding Jews and the student is arrested and taken away.
