This week's Hidden Gem (#33 as we count down to #1) is a 1963 film from France. When this was listed (in 2013), Louis Malle's masterpiece was not as well known as it is today. If you've seen this one, please share your thoughts. If not, please let us know if this sounds like a film you'd like to see:

Speaking of French movies, I don't see "Siren of Atlantis" (1949) on your gems list. Have you seen it?
An unusual noir adventure fantasy with a very "French" ending (strange and unhappy), being based on a French novel. It's one of several film versions, but I've only seen this one starring Dennis O'Keefe. There are some negative reviews on imdb which should be ignored.
