Le placard (2001)

Review by OliviaF

Le placard

7/10

Funny without being too straight

As a person who works in HR I could relate to the many themes in this film. You don't have to be pro-gay to like this film. If you are someone who loathes political correctness you will probably like it even more. I really enjoyed Daniel's performance as the straight, average, dull man who is assumed to be gay, only to find the pretence actually works in his favour. I love how he regained his courage and in the end, unleashed the "inner man." That line how he says "being gay taught me more about being a man than anything else" is a classic. Also when he puts in a sexual harassment complaint against his blonde, attractive supervisor, only to have the manager say to her "any other man in this office would love you to harass them." I love how this film plays around with the ideas of Political correctness in a very tongue of cheek way, without resorting to luridness or cheap humour.
