And They Lived Happily Ever After 2004


 Happily Ever After

     This film takes a look at three relationships.  Georges and Natalie argue and fight constantly.  Fred is a bachelor playboy nearing 40 with many girlfriends.  Vincent and Gabrielle have a son, they are very playful and romantic but sometimes bored and detached.  Georges wonders if he can stay with Natalie under these conditions. Vincent’s life is the envy of Georges and Fred.  Gabrielle imagines being separated from Fred. 
     There are times in this movie when you don’t know what is really happening and what is imagination.  One couple from India with a happy marriage and no problems are barely seen or mentioned?  They live quietly next door to Georges and Natalie while listening to their daily fights.  2* (This movie is so-so)

100 min, Comedy directed by Yvan Attal with Johnny Depp, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Sebastien Vidal, Yvan Attal, Chloe Combret, Christiane Oui-Oui, Alain Cohen, Carlina Gynning.

Note:  Imdb 6.7 out of 10, 57% critic 71% audience on Rotten Tomatoes, Roger Ebert 2*.
Special Note:  Johnny Depp has first billing but a very small role?
