Every Margot Robbie Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

15. Suite Française (2014)

The forbidden love angle is as old as time, and they don't come more forbidden than between a German soldier and an oppressed villager in Nazi-occupied France. It makes for an incredibly powerful story.

When the Nazis invade the villagers' homes in Saul Dibb's Suite Française, Bruno Van Faulk (Matthias Schoenaerts) slowly falls in love with Lucile (Michelle Williams), who against the very reasonable and understandable objections of her mother-in-law, Madame Angellier (Kristin Scott Thomas), falls in love right back.

Margot Robbie only brings to life a small supporting role as Celine, one of Madame Angellier's tenants. It's a solid if unspectacular performance, as instead this movie is purely that of Michelle Williams', one of the only people in Hollywood who would be able to steal the show from Robbie even if the latter had a larger role.

Though the picture fell short of its Oscar expectations, it is a strong addition to the wartime romance genre.
