I love so much frenh movies, but this one is not good
bored, too much short and nothing new,
I do not know what is the iea with this movie, bad, very bad
Wow, this was bad. it was marketed as a"feminist take on the rom-com' but coming from Louis Garrel who displayed his deep misogyny with his signing onto a petition calling for the release of director Roman Polanski after his arrest in relation to his 1977 charge for drugging and raping a 13-year-old girl -- I doubt the he has the sensibilities for any "feminist take."
If course feminism in French film is more than an oximoron anyway. The feminism in this is having Johhny Depp's teenage daughter playing a liberated character chasing a near 40 year old man. ok. Yeah.
I felt this could have been one of harvey wienstiens films!

First time for me to watch a 70 mins full movie but it turned out great. This and the fast pacing of the scenes were enough to show the life of Abel. Louis did a great job acting and directing. Also big fan of Lily-rose Depp.
The film is a french rom-com that sometimes hints at being some kind if neo-noir, but none of the build up is ever well payed. It has some interesting choices, but it's cinematography is dull. The characters have a lot of hateful characteristics but you end up kind of understanding their point of view, maybe even liking them a little bit. There are a lot of questions made by the film thatyou could argue at never getting an answer. It's not bad, it's not great, it's okay, you can whatch it if you really like french movies
Louis Garrel's lightweight drama initially seems like a vanity project for its writer, director and star. Nine years on from a brutal break-up, his endearingly ruffled Abel finds himself in a love triangle with the widowed Marianne (Garrel's real-life spouse Laetitia Casta) and LilyRose Depp's obsessive Eve. But skipping spryly between romantic comedy, reflective character piece and gentle farce, it surprises by putting its two women firmly in charge, leaving its assumed lead as little more than their bemused plaything. At just 75 minutes, it breezes by, though Casta's wily turn lingers beyond the credits.
