Monsieur Lazhar wins best picture, best director at Genies

If he left Los Angeles last month feeling down for losing the best foreign film Oscar to Iran’s A Separation, Montreal director Philippe Falardeau must have felt validated last night. His film Monsieur Lazhar was the most honoured movie at the Genie Awards, taking home six trophies, including best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay.
