Just One More Episode - Lupin

Ollie Little and Sybilla Hamilton

Welcome to Just One More Episode ! We are Ollie Little and Sybilla Hamilton, a couple of MMLers spending far more time than we should discussing films instead of learning our languages. So join in as we discuss a new film or TV series every fortnight on the Cambridge Language Collective blog. Whether it’s a box office hit or an obscure gem, we’ll cover everything you need to know, so stop working, switch on Netflix and watch just another episode. 

For this first episode we are investigating the new crime drama series Lupin which came out earlier this year and has been smashing records on Netflix since. It follows a professional thief, played by Omar Sy, through Paris as he avenges the death of his father and steals Marie Antoinette’s necklace from the Louvre. 

If you’ve been wondering what the hype is all about and want our take on if it is worth watching, then look no further – we cover a broad array of topics from the rise of Omar Sy to their thought-provoking depiction of the police. 

Next time we dive deeper into Netflix’s trove of French TV with Le Chalet, a thrilling murder mystery set in a rural escape in the French Alps which you can watch the trailer for here.
