And also Olivier Gourmet, but in a minor role, too short for my taste. It is a forgotten movie but well acted, directed and which is worth watching for its depth in terms of feelings, emotions. Gloomy, sad, don't try it if you are depressed. A complex relationship between characters, which I won't describe here not to spoil it. French films often provide such movies, not destined to wide audiences. Guillaume Depardieu's, Gerard Depardieu's son, is absolutely awesome here, showing such a fragile, sensitive personality, as in real life. Such a shame he died in 2008. Such a loss for the French cinema. This movie is the best proof.

I am glad to be offered the chance to speak my voice about this movie, so that I can warn all IMDB users.

A bunch of mediocre actors working very poorly (alas, the worst one is Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, from my country Italy, I have to admit), and a screenplay that probably tries to imitate the story of Pollyanna make this movie a very good candidate for your next "all-trash-night" (when you and your friends eat mash-mellows and ice-cream, watching Glitter and Swept Away...and of course this very movie). The top (= bottom) is with no doubt the dialogues. Lines like "I feel like I have a stone on my heart", or "If God exists, I wonder why He lets children die" should be heard only if you are watching Dawson's Creek on TV (and you would deserve them), not a movie in a theatre. An advice for Vincent Perez: I think it's better being a so-and-so actor, rather than a disastrous director. Agree? Hope so.

Beyond any limit of human tolerance. To avoid at all costs.

The pace is gradual, the film is tender. It is incredibly moving and despite the sadness in the story, it is extremely uplifting. I would be very interested in seeing any future directorial projects from Vincent Perez.

This may not be the greatest movie ever. It's sweetness tends sometimes to make the audience bitter. Vincent Perez does a great job for a first movie. It can remind some of Virgin suicides where some young women's feelings are so pure and strong that they will inevitably meet the only answer which doesn't disappoint : death. And in both movies, even if Morgane Moré and Kirsten Dunst have the leading roles, it's Magalie Woch (who plays friend Josiane) and Hanna Hall (Cecilia Lisbon) who leave the greatest impact, who are metaphysical. And remember Magalie's secret recipe for happiness : a bite of bread and a cherry while sitting on a tree.
