La vie pour de vrai

No pun intended - this has two of the best current comedians France has to offer. And also Gainsburg as a catalyst or whatever you want to call her. She really goes out - knowing her role and what she means to the story. A story that is comical but also quite tragic to say the least.

Interesting concept and I reckon close to Past Lives - only that the main character here actively tries to remedy a "mistake" he made back in the day. There is one big hurdle he will not be able to overcome - does it matter though? And no worries we learn about that quite early on - important part of the story.

Our two "heroes" really go for it. I assume a remake (US and otherwise) is imminent ... to say the least. Until then we have this and can have quite a lot of fun.
