Monsieur & Madame Adelman

The best movie I saw this year by far...Moving, witty, very funny, great dialogues, superb acting, a rare jewel!!!!I had no expectations about this movie based on the last french movies I saw but I left the theater in a lighter mood.This thriller reminds me old french school: Lelouch comedies and other great directors which are no longer among us.If you want to have a great time for a couple of hours, go and see it!

Saw this on a long haul flight: beautiful love story, well directed and put together. In essence it is the story of a couple from their acquaintance till death. Great fun, laughs and tears! It also takes you through the different phases historically and especially in France - as I grew up there, the familiarity might be somewhat biased - so really enjoyed it. Absolute recommendation to see this movie!

A virtue and a sin, in same measure. All the nuances of French cinema are present in this seductive-bitter drama in which the humor and the irony, the cynical levels and the cruelty in different forms, the love and the fall of love, the fears and the joy are reflected in strange and precise manner. But, it could be perceived as only a correct use of old recipe. The characters, the dialogues, the crisis, the stranger front to confessions of an old lady, her words changing everything again and again are good points because they are familiar. I love this film exactly for its French flavor, for the status of travel across influences and suggestions, for the cold honesty and for the precise traits of the characters, for the status of story about survive and for the last confession as basic proof of a great love story , more profound if you see, again, from the first scene, this profound seductive pledge for be part of the other.

classic french cinema, full of psychoanalysis. fast moving witty and indiscreetly correct dialogue for those needing subtitles. what comes as surprise is the revelation, or at least the unmentioned-until-absolutely-necessary of who the madame is. this gave a entirely different, while parallel, level of information about madame and her extended family. we see only what we are allowed to see, but only once the viewer had been prepared. the essence of what is communicated can have other sources, other motives. as expected sex is in full Freudian motion and this particular French relationship is more passionate drama and manipulation than romance. poor guy was out of his league. viewed as unstated confirmation it will be liked in Hollywood New York, but, what with the state of things, it worries me. if possible, see the most excellent 2014 Turkish film Kis Uykusu, to understand how compassion is missing in the French film.

it is definitely worth seeing both as entertainment and education. could even change your world view. 7 of 10

An entertaining, smart, funny movie. Well directed, great acting, good production. Another dozen of these in the same year and the French have once again a film industry! One thing's for sure Nicolas Bedos is one talented guy.
