Frederic is an artist married to Angele, he is a painter and she is a
successful actress. They invite
Frederic’s close friend Paul and his girlfriend to spend some time with them at
their large apartment. Paul and
Elisabeth are both actors in bit parts and crowd scenes. Paul and Frederic spend a lot of time
together and Angele and Elisabeth become friends also. Elisabeth finds she is becoming jealous
of the amount of time Paul spends with Frederic instead of being with her. Frederic and Angele are having problems
with their marriage and this begins to spill over into the relationship between
Paul and Elisabeth.
You are a husband, you are very self-absorbed, convey indifference to
your wife and your marriage. Why
are you surprised when you begin to have difficulties with your wife and the
marriage? This film is very
superficial, the characters are vapid, flat and one-dimensional. Why would I want to relate to them or
their lives? 2* (I didn’t like
this movie)
95 min, Drama directed by Philippe Garrel with Monica
Bellucci, Louis Garrel (the son of the director), Celine Sallette, Jerome
Robart, Vladislav Galard.
