Historical dramas worth a look

Worth noting are two fine releases from Bluebell Films.

Agnes Merlet’s Artemisia (24.99) is a fine historical drama focussing on Italian female painter, Artemisia Gentleschi (Valentina Cervi), whose ambition to realise her talents is compromised by her relationship with a fellow painter.

In Mon père, ce héros (24.99), Gerard Depardieu plays Andre, a loving father whose holiday with daughter Veronique (Marie Gillian) turns into a complicated and highly amusing coming of age encounter.
