La vérité (2019)

 

A stormy reunion between scriptwriter Lumir with her famous mother and actress, Fabienne, against the backdrop of Fabienne's autobiographic book and her latest role in a Sci-Fi picture as a daughter of a mother who never grows old. 

Undemanding family drama is amusing for having Ethan Hawke play the helpless bystander to a feud between the titans Deneuve and Binoche.

 

Conte d'automne (1998)

A widow's best friend tries to find her a new husband, but the ad posted in the newspaper attracts more than one possibility.

Éric Rohmer's version of a screwball comedy: ever so slightly humorous and very realistic.

Halliwell**: "Gently perceptive, witty drama, given a physical and spiritual autumnal setting, and one that is rooted in the realities of everyday life."

Maltin***1/2: "Delicious adult comedy...This is Rohmer at his best; glorious fun with a most appealing cast."
