Le Jeu

This movie was just amazing, it was so cool the see a movie that is still so captivating even though there are just people sitting by a table. I recommend to everyone, and hope that people like it as much as I did.

So I found out after watching this French film that it is a remake of the an Italian film; Perfect Strangers - English title. So while I can't really assess the movie based on how its been remade into a French version, I can say I loved the script, the plot and the acting. It is simple films like these which show you that you don't need an outrageous movie budget to thoroughly captivate an audience. I'm still feeling 'giddy' from watching it!! Finally, Apologies if this comes off somewhat pretentious but there is a quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, tender is the night, that provides the perfect synopsis for this movie; "I want to give a really BAD party. I mean it. I want to give a party where there's a brawl and seductions and people going home with their feelings hurt and women passed out in the cabinet de toilette. You wait and see." I choose to think if Dick Diver (I.e. Scott Fitzgerald) had to throw a party in this day and age, he would throw the party portrayed in this movie. (But perhaps with a bit more alcohol involved...)

I love European films, and this didn't disappoint. The French language adds a certain artistic element to the English viewer, and Gregory Gadebois adds his understated excellence to it. The dining around the table is both reminiscent of times in France and so "every day" that is sets the backdrop really well. I take it from other reviews that this is a remake of another film, one I'd like to see, if this is anything to go by. Funny, realistic, well acted, emotional, and passionate in equal measure.

I would say its a Worth watch even u are a Fan of italian original version Perfect strangers... The cast is Great nd so do direction... The tension was gripping As much as original Did... Nothing more to say.. Go nd watch it asap

For the first time I watch a creative french movie ! I think we all have secrets living in our phones but the scenario has lost us at the end sadly :(
