What the audience says
De Gaulle: Résistance has pulled the kind of numbers most French films never see. It's sitting at 7.8/10 on TMDB across 201 ratings, which puts it comfortably above average.
Should you spend 2h 40m on it?
2h 40m of French history, leaning drama, not one for younger kids. Long enough that it wants your full attention rather than a second screen.
Story
June, 1940. France collapses and signs the armistice. In the midst of the chaos, one man refuses to give up. Alone against the odds, this unknown general flees to London to save what remains of freedom.
