A very good movie

Since I kept hearing some really good things about this flick, I was really eager to check it out. First of all, I discovered afterwards the fact that it was actually a remake which was really surprising. Indeed, most of the time, French movies are remade in some (very average) American versions. This time, we have a French movie which is actually a remake of a rather unknown American movie ('Fing... read more

Tom (Romain Duris) seems destined to follow in his father's footsteps as a Parisian property shark until a chance encounter with his late mother's music agent leads him to believe he can become a concert pianist. With the help of a beautiful Chinese virtuoso, he starts preparing for a critical audition and making positive changes in his life. But secrets from his past threaten to destroy his plans for the future.

My two cents: First of all, I discovered afterwards the fact that it was actually a remake which was really surprising.

"Most of the time, when it comes to remakes, it's usually Hollywood that remakes a film from another country. Here, it's the other way around. The Beat That My Heart Skipped is a French take on the 1978 "classic", Fingers, starring Harvey Keitel. Focusing on the daily life of a "land shark" and criminal, Thomas Seyr, his passion for playing the piano is reignited by a chance encounter. Now Trying to balance his love for music and his lifestyle in the mob, Seyr becomes caught in a struggle betwee"
