I have seen German boy's school (All Quiet on the Western Front), UK boy's school (Goodbye, Mr. Chips), and American boy's school (Dead Poet's Society). So, now was my time to check out the French version of Boys School. Let us just say that the other countries did it a bit better. It is a good try, but no cigar, despite some interesting performances. Erich von Stroheim is always fun to watch, and the rest of the cast is fine. The writing is just weaker than the other countries' counterparts. Harmless fun.
