Documentary "The title of N.T. Binh's wonderfully revealing documentary is extremely apt. There was, indeed, a kind of magic about the films of the late French director Claude Sautet, whose major works explored with a seemingly effortless intimacy the lives of middle-class people, their loves, their jealousies, their ambitions and their disappointments. With plentiful use of film clips, well chosen and in pristine condition, and based on hours of audio interviews with Sautet, recorded before his death in July 2000, plus the observations of his collaborators and of his widow, this is an important reminder of the career of a great director."
