Just for fun... Well, for non french people

the movie is 1973, but is about a very actual problem : Lodging and working in Paris, and maintaining of a couple life. Everyone in France knows this is impossible, and this movie show why and how things happen. Jacques Higelin is good as an actor (Well... He is better as a singer) and Marthe Keller is perfect as the main character. I saw this movie years ago, when I was young, living and working in Paris, and trying to find a flat to dwell with my wife and newborn son... Now I'm old, far from Paris and I laugh as all is true and very acurate. Seems to be My own history. I can't but give this one a very high rating. The best in this movie is the portrait gallery of the secondary characters, the peddler, the dentist, the girl in the bar, and even the angry Alice Sapritch... All this makes a very watchable movie. There are far more better examples of french comedy, but you should give this one a try. The worst it could do is to waste 1:30 hour of your time, the same the character in the movie spend in the transports every morning

Fun realistic comedy

I watched a couple of months ago A PLEIN TEMPS, a new film, a tense drama which described with also a realistic way the way of living for common French folks going to Paris everyday from the suburbs. A PLEIN TEMPS was gritty, gloomy, not made in the same way as this light hearted one, not shown from the same angle. This film directed by Gerard Pirès took place in the seventies, during the "glorious thirties", the three decades 50's, 60's, 70's, during which living was far far easier than now in the 2020's. So this very film, ELLE COURT, ELLE COURT....is perfectly in the mood of its period. But the topic, the overall scheme is very very close. Both movies that concerned thousands and thousands of audiences who could easily recognize themselves in.

Beneath the blue suburban sky.

Not much food for thought but pleasant.Jacques Higelin is a French singer/Musician ,still popular today ,even if he is not so gentle as he appears in the film .Swiss Marthe Keller who played opposite Al Pacino in "Bobby Deerfield " and opposite Dustin Hoffman in "Marathon Man" plays his wife.Not a professional musician in the film,though he plays the occasional drummer,he is a rep (lace)and she is a secretary.They live in the Banlieue (Parisian suburbs)and she 's got to get up very early to go to work in Paris whereas her husband comes back late at night.How could their couple resist?Not a great film ,but a pleasant little comedy.
