[A] touching and sad story based on events from director Louis Malle's own childhood.
Widescreen Review
Rating: 4/5 --
Not the director's best work, but far, far from being his worst either.

Little White Lies
Rating: 5/5 --
Malle builds Au Revoir Les Enfants out of small but vivid details centred on the life of the boarder, and the daily rituals and routines experienced by Julien Quentin (Gaspard Manesse) and Jean Bonnet (Raphael Fejtö).

CineVue
Without portentousness or pretension, it achieves genuine tragic depth.

The Spectator
A brilliant Louis Malle comeback from fairly late in the director's spotty but brilliant career...
USA Today
Without being sentimental, the drama is incredibly moving as the muted light plays over young faces that are about to face the unknowable evils of the adult world.

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.
