L'Origine du Monde

I enjoyed this film. I'm not French but I get the humor. It's really funny the way Jean-Louis, Valerie and Michel conspire to obtain a non-digital photo of Jean-Louis' "origin." And dear Brigitte's unintended revelations are the piece de resistance. Surely, Helene Vincent is the darling of the show.

This film is an example of comedy as fine art.

I see some people were offended by some humoristic scenes. Honestly I don'tsee the big problem with those scenes. I thought they were funny and luckily we had those scenes in this movie. Actually the movie starts okay, with sometimes acting that could have been better, but it was not all that thrilling to watch, until those scenes came along and brought the comedy I was waiting for. I guess some people are easily shocked, but keep in mind this is only a movie, nobody got hurt. L'Origine Du Monde (or Dear Mother for the English title) is a funny French movie that is worth watching, that is if you're not too stuck up..

Ce premier film est caustique à souhait. Une réalisation carrée, des dialogues ciselés et des acteurs irrésistibles .... j'adore même si l'ensemble est complètement barré.

I am french and already convinced by the selected actors of this movie. Discovering Laurent Lafitte as a movie maker and this is a success. The storie of this movie is surprising the audience until the end. Now i'm waiting for your second movie, Mr Lafitte!

Tired of comedies with similar storyline ?

Well, you will be in for a refreshing treat with this French comedy!

Careful, though, as it is VERY different !!!

Great casting.
