Rate and rank the films of Louis Malle
 

I searched and didn't find a thread about Louis Malle or his films, so I decided to start one.
Here is my rating and ranking of what I have seen of his films:

My Dinner with Andre (1981) 10/10
Black Moon (1975) 9/10
Pretty Baby (1978) 8/10
Elevator to the Gallows (1958) 8/10
Au Revoir les Enfants (1987) 8/10
The Fire Within (1963) 7/10
Atlantic City (1980) 5/10
May Fools (1990) 5/10

Re: Rate and rank the films of Louis Malle
 

I think I've only seen two:

Pretty baby 8/10
Black Moon 5/10 (could have been one of my extra-negative moments so possibly closer to 6/10)

Talk about a director I really want to delve further into.
My viewings have been pretty weak so far.

Au Revoir, Les Enfants. 8.5/10
Atlantic City 7/10
Pretty Baby 4/10


Really want to get into his pre 1980’s stuff.
And of course, My Dinner with Andre.

Atlantic City 7+
Au Revoir les Enfants 7
Lacombe, Lucien 7
Place de la République 6.5
Murmur of the Heart 6.5
Viva Maria! 6.5
God's Country 6.5
The Thief of Paris 6.5
May Fools 6.5
Elevator to the Gallows 6.5
Zazie dans le Métro 6
Pretty Baby 6
The Fire Within 6
My Dinner with Andre 6
The Lovers 6
Vanya on 42nd Street 6
Damage 6
"William Wilson" (Spirits of the Dead) 5.5
Calcutta 5
A Very Private Affair 5
Alamo Bay 5
Crackers 5
Black Moon 4

My all-time fave. Scandalous & hugely entertaining. :)
