Les mamies ne font pas dans la dentelle
6.2
Alors qu'elle a perdu toute joie de vivre suite à la mort de son mari, l'octogénaire Martha se laisse convaincre par son amie Lisi de réaliser le rêve de cette dernière: ouvrir un magasin de lingerie fine. Hélas, les représentants de l'église et les politiciens de ce village de l'Emmenthal ne l'entendent pas de la même oreille. Charmante comédie helvétique mélangeant savamment humour et mélancolie. L'un des plus gros succès de l'histoire du cinéma suisse.

Uli der Knecht

Oct 19, 1954
The film traces Uli's progress from his humble peasant surroundings to the homes of the wealthy and prominent. The characterizations are convincing, and the comic interludes surprisingly subtle and believable for a Swiss film. The no-star cast doomed Uli Der Knecht from the start so far as American distribution was concerned. It was another matter in Switzerland, where the film was one of the year's top moneymakers. Uli der Knecht was based on a novel by Jeremias Gottbelf.

Commissaire Hunkeler et l'affaire Livius
8
Un cadavre découvert dans la zone frontalière entre la Suisse et la France contraint un commissaire bâlois à enquêter avec son homologue alsacien. On a trouvé un cadavre dans la cabane d'un jardin ouvrier de Bâle. Le défunt a été sauvagement assassiné : tué par balle, il a ensuite été suspendu à la poutre du cabanon par un crochet de boucher. Confiée au commissaire Hunkeler de Bâle, l'affaire se complique d'emblée : si la plupart des propriétaires des parcelles habitent en effet à Bâle, le terrain où le meurtre a été commis est rattaché à la France. Hunkeler va donc devoir collaborer avec un collègue français. Très vite, les soupçons se portent sur un certain Cattaneo, qui jardine aussi dans le secteur. Hunkeler découvre pourtant un détail qui l'intrigue : la victime, Livius, qui s'appelait autrefois Schmidt, semble avoir un passé trouble lié à la Seconde Guerre mondiale...
