Quarto 212

Very interesting concept but I didn't fully get into the story or its message. Unlike most, while i really like lacoste and cottin in other movies, i didn't feel they were a good choice for these roles. Something felt off but it's still an enjoyable movie to watch.

Director Christophe Honoré continues to build a brilliant career with focus on modern lovers battling obstacles and standards, while setting themselves free for love and pleasure. Gorgeous and versatile, Chiara Mastroianni exercises her comic skills as a promiscuous adulterous who finds herself on a deep self-examination after getting caught by her prudent husband. In a stylish, elegant and ambiguous dreamlike atmosphere, deeply influenced by Buñuel and Fellini, the director conceives a provocative, sexy and contemplative analysis on a marital crisis, as well as an intriguing homage to memory and individual time.

A woman with a very special character has been cheating on her husband for years with young, well-groomed minots. The husband ends up realizing, and the couple takes a night to think about their separate states of a simple alley. This film is a very good surprise, it is expected by reading the synopsis to a French drama all that is classic and schoolboy but we find ourselves in front of a truly touching work combining comedy, fantasy and obviously drama. The 4 main characters are played with great accuracy, special mention to Chiara Mastroianni and Vincent Lacoste who plays characters with very nice attitude. Christophe Honoré delivers a film to the screenplay that I have already seen dozens of times, but never in this way.

... and what to do about it. In the case of Maria it's to have a fling or fifteen through those years of her marriage where the spark has gone. An original take, as her lovers and her conscience amongst others, revisit over a reflective night.

"On a Magical Night" is a Comedy movie in which we watch a woman leaving her husband after twenty years of marriage. She moves to a hotel room where she thinks about her life and her choices, and whether they were right or wrong.

I liked this movie because it had a very unique and different plot, something that was a big surprise for me. The direction which was made by Christophe Honoré was very good and he did an excellent job on the way he presented the history behind his main characters and their connection. The interpretations of Chiara Mastroianni who played as Maria Mortemart, Benjamin Biolay who played as Richard Warrimer (40 ans) and Camille Cottin who played as Irène Haffner (40 ans) were very good and their combination worked very well. Finally, I have to say that "On a Magical Night" is an interesting comedy movie and I recommend everyone you to watch it because I am sure you will have a great time and you will laugh a lot.
