A good movie

It is once again a rather obscure French movie which not much people have seen here in Listal (I was one of the first users who have rated this movie and, right now, only 8 users have rated it so far). Even though Bertrand Tavernier is pretty much unknown here in Listal, he is actually one of the best French directors from the last 40 years and I always had a weak spot for his work so I was quite eager to check this movie. To be honest, I don’t think it belongs to his best work, it is just too light for my taste and I prefer his tougher movies, usually with a socially conscious message. Still, there is no denying that it was one really delightful picture and it was a critical success back then when it was released in France. So, like I said before, it was nothing really ground-breaking, at least, not to me, but I’m not sure if it was meant to be ground-breaking and I really enjoyed the performances and, of course, the very solid directing by Tavernier. To conclude, I thought it was pretty good and it is worth a look, especially if you are interested in French movies.
