Trivia
One scene concerned director Diane Kurys. Two 8-year-olds, a boy and a girl, are playing on a beach: The game is doctor. 'May I tickle you?' the boy asks. The answer is no. He asks again. She agrees, reluctantly. He turns her on her back, unties the strap of her bathing suit and gently massages her. "The kids weren't scared; I was the one who was a wreck because I wanted to get it right," Kurys explained. "I didn't want to hurt them and I wanted them to understand we weren't voyeurs. The girl asked me, 'I don't have to be naked?' That was the only concern for her."

A fair look of a divorce from multiple points of view

(1990) C'est La Vie/ La Baule-les-Pins (In French with English subtitles) DRAMA/ COMEDY

Co-produced, co-written and directed by Diane Kurys that has young girl turning 13, feeling the effects of her parents divorce while going on a beach vacation! While she narrates some of the story, her parents side of things are also shown at the same time, in a non-resolution kind of way! After my second viewing, since the first time I saw this flick, I was only a little kid and was interested in watching 'foreign films', except that it didn't appeal to me as much as right now. Written and directed by Diane Kurys that sometimes appear to be sort of an autobiography of her own life.
