Christmas Flow

This is a charming French rom-com. What makes it interesting, and very French - as opposed to American - is that it's the story of a Black rapper and a white - more or less - journalist who fall in love, and race is never an issue. She has Christmas dinner at his parents' house, and we don't go back through *Guess Who's Coming to Dinner* territory. He shows up at her family's place, and ditto. The couple quarrels about his misogynist lyrics, but not about whether they can make a mixed-race relationship work.

And that, here in the U. S., is very refreshingly different to see.

This is so quintessentially French, I can see many English speakers will find it difficult to warm to, but I think a lot of our European neighbours will like it.

It's a comedy, serious at times, and it's a Christmas one, and totally utterly French in its multiculturalism.

I loved it. Direction is clever and on point, the plot is guessed quickly but the road there is always surprising and that's the best part of this series - you never know what will happen next. Often hilarious, other times crazy, but also often making subtle points about entrenched "attitudes".

However, most of all, while there are two obvious stars this is a mini-series where, actually, all actors are the stars of the series. Bravo to the Director !

Chapeau !

I really like this Production. I watch it on Netflix. I can really connect with Marcus and the music production industry.

Right now it is only 3 episodes, I hope it grows as a Production.

I really like the female actors and the filming style.

Couldn't finish episode one, I watched 80 percent of it and gave up. It just couldn't keep me interested, my mind started to wander and I kept checking stuff on my phone. When that happens, it's because I'm not captivates. Shame because I like Camille Lou ...

The plot is a no brainer, you can see the ending coming a mile away but if you're a sap for a Christmas Hoiday Feel good romance then this is the one to watch.

Honestly annoyed it's only three episodes (seriously netflix!) .

The acting isn't oscar nominee worthy but come on who expects that. What you get a is romance that really does blossom from start to finish as both characters get more vulnerable with each other and that's a win to anyone that's looking for a romance that really resonates.
