Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
[While The Last Metro] was more melodramatic, confined to a single theater company and its strategies and deceptions, while Tavernier is more concerned with the entire period of history.
No one who loves French film (or movies in general) should miss it.
There's an epic here, but you have to put it together yourself.
Though it runs 163 minutes, Safe Conduct is anything but languorous. It's packed to bursting with incident, and with scores of characters, some fictional, some from history.
