Mado
is a successful actress spending the summer at her country home with
her boyfriend, Brice. He is a noted filmmaker and he directed her
latest picture. Her son Julien is staying with them, he is an
experimental filmmaker with a combustible personalty. Lili is a young
woman whose family lives nearby, she comes over a lot when her mother is
away. A lot of other people are in and out, Jeanne-Marie, the daughter
of Mado's caretaker lives there too. Mado doesn't have any kind words after a
screening of Julien's latest film starring Lili. Jeanne-Marie defends
him but he's interested in Lili. Lili is interested in Brice even
though he is much older.
It
seems like everyone in this film wants to be with someone other than
the person they are with? A lot of yelling and exploding emotions.
Everything takes a different direction after Lili leaves with Brice.
Difficult to keep the focus required because of the subtitles. You just
want them all to be quiet!! 3* (This movie is OK)
