Read allDidier and Anne, both trying to escape from their lives, literally bump into one another on the streets of Paris and, through a series of adventures, set about creating a quiet revolution in their lives. Clear-eyed, witty and entirely original, this is a film of friendship and an exploration of our need not to run away, but to create what we really want for ourselves.

    Slow but enjoyable French movie

    The protagonists of this film (titled "Get A Way" in English), Didier and Anne, meet randomly when Didier's van collides with Anne's bicycle in a Parisian street. The two strike up a friendship as Didier promises to fix Anne's bicycle, and the remainder of the film explores their relationship, as well as Didier and Anne's complex relationships with their parents.

    The film is somewhat slow, especially at the beginning, when most of the "action" involves dialogue between Didier and Anne in either his van or apartment. However, the last third makes the film worthwhile as the two attempt to straighten out their tortured relationships with their parents. Didier has not spoken with his father in twenty years, and his father suspects that Didier is homosexual. Anne continually disappoints her overbearing parents who want her to be an academic and professional success. I found the film's emphasis on the need for open, honest discussion of one's emotions to be revealing.

    Overall, I found this typically French movie to be enjoyable. Overall, I would give a grade of "B".
