What critics compared Anything for Her to
The original French version, which translated as " Anything For Her ," only came out a few years ago, and I'm curious to see how they told the story.
Adapting the highly successful French thriller, "Anything For Her" for an American audience, Paul Haggis writes and directs and delivers one of the more gut-grabbing suspense yarns we've seen this year.
The Next Three Days, Paul Haggis' adaptation of the 2008 French film, Anything for Her, uses an interesting concept as a cornerstone of the foundation.
A remake of the 2008 French film “Anything For Her,” it tells the story of a mild-mannered man whose wife is falsely convicted of murder and decided to bust her out of prison.
His story is based on a 2007 French movie called Anything For Her and some of the hallmarks of morally conflicted French cinema shine through, but Haggis manages to put his own stamp on it.
Directed, written by Paul Haggis, based on the film "Anything for Her" (Pour elle) directed by Fred Cavaye, written by Cavaye, Guillaume Lemans.
