Film that you must see.

Fantastic performance by Jose Garcia. His grace and charm, and especially sense of humor, gave this piece of art another dimension. Isabelle Doval was brilliant as actor but shows brilliance as director as well. The jokes are so funny but not vulgar. On of the best love story i have ever seen. There are lots of stuff you can learn from this movie. I think that it is way underrated on Internet Movie Database. All characters are well played, and i can not think of one bad thing in this movie. One of the best movies I've seen. This Comedy will make you laugh as never before. Everything is right in this movie. I shall not reveal anything, just watch and thank me later.

If you like José Garcia, you'll love this movie !

Finally a movie where Jose Garcia has all the place he wants to breath and really express himself ! (All right, maybe it's because his wife directs the movie, that's a minimum !)And the scenes with Benoit Poelvoorde are masterpieces ! This is not only a very funny movie (sometimes it's very subtle, it's even better) it has a real purpose : to make you realize how lucky you are before loosing everything completely, some moving moments, but there's always a trace of humor after so you never stop laughing while the message goes through.

I had a really good time with this movie, I hope you will too !

profound and funny, but disappointing ending

It is quite unusual to see a comedy which is both funny and relevantly profound. It's just too bad the director did not believe in the ideas she finely develops throughout the film ; indeed, the end is really disappointing and reminds me (here's the spoiler !) of Boxing Helena.
