Basically, it is another really obscure French movies that almost no one has seen on Listal. To be honest, I really don’t know why but I was really intrigued by this movie and I was quite eager to check it out. Concerning Nicole Garcia, she is not really a major French director, even in France she is not regarded as a great director, so I’m pretty sure that you have never heard of her but I have actually managed to watch half of her directing efforts and I must admit that I have a weak spot for her work. Anyway, this 2nd directing effort was definitely a step-up from her directing debut, ‘Un week-end sur deux’, which was slightly too low-key for my taste, and there was definitely something quite mesmerizing about the relationships between these 3 brothers, thanks to some really strong performances from the 3 actors involved (Gérard Lanvin, Bernard Giraudeau, Jean-Marc Barr). Concernig Garcia, her next movie would be the even more ambitious ‘Place Vendôme’ starring the great Catherine Deneuve. To conclude, even though it wasn’t really a masterpiece, I thought it was still a decent drama and I think it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in French movies.
