Who has stolen the TV?

Warning : fans of Annie GIRARDOT,beware! her appearance does not exceed fifteen minutes .

"Always alone" may seem an odd title for a movie in which twelve (and even thirteen with the return of the prodigal son who spent some time in the nick) persons cram into a three -room flat in a drab suburb .All the story is told by the youngest child of the family (who eventually finds the right way to get out of this dump).The writers wanted probably to show us that is an unfair society , you are always alone ,in spite of a large family, when you deal with your personal problems

A film made of sketches best describes a confusing screenplay ,in which the actors (with the exception of Girardot and Philippe Caroit as a sewing-machines rep on the dole ) try to hog the stage each one more so than the other;witty lines are few and far between ("I like cats because there are no police cats")
