Yves Jeuland’s “Being Jewish in France” (Comme Un Juif en France) is a 185-minute documentary, narrated by Mathieu Amalric that collects anti-Semitic actions in that country since the time of Napoleon. With only a topical idea of French culture and history, most viewers will likely feel swamped by the run of anecdote and example. Its ambitions outran this viewer’s comprehension. Still, the density of archival material impresses. With Robert Badinter, Elie Barnavi, Jean Benguigui, Paul Bernard, Rachel Cohen, Daniel Farhi, Bruno Fiszon, Raphael Drai. 185m. (Ray Pride)
