This is a stand-out movie. It has a straightforward plot, supported by numerous flashbacks which are integral to the story. It's in such contrast to all those other movies which assemble a group of old actors and give them a corny predictable script to work with, one which doesn't even begin to exercise their proven talents.
By contrast, the two lead actors in this are brilliant, as are the settings and the storyline. At 94, Line Renaud proves that there's no such thing as being over the hill while Dany Boon, her co-star, is the perfect foil. This movie plays with all our emotions, from laugh out loud to tearfully sad, with tremendous skill. There are few films I'd choose to watch a second time but this is certainly among them.
