"J'accuse" is a good film that retells the famous case of french Jewish officer Alfred Dreyfus who was convicted for treason against France and sent to prison with no fair trial. This movie shows not only how much the French army was anti semitic. But also were wrong from the beginning and tried to get away without punishment. How the French high officers tried to hide the truth so they won't be embarrassed in public. Jean Dujardin Is a great actor, mostly known for comedic roles. Here he does a phenomenal performance as the officer who uncovered the real traitor in the army thus called for an investigation to be made in order to declare Dreyfuss innocent. I enjoyed the flashbacks to the moments prior to the film's plot. It was perfectly filmed and accurate to the history of the case. Roman Polanski is a great director and has done a marvelous job.
