    • Trivia
      A few seconds of Jacques Demy's musical 'Les demoiselles de Rochefort' (1967) are in the TV at Osman house. The soundtrack was composed by Michel Legrand, the same composer on 'The price of fame' (2014), and Catherine Deneuve is actually the mother of Chiara Mastroianni (who plays the role of Rosa in this film).

    Amusing and somewhat grand

    Crime born of desperation is always a bit understandable. In this case, no one was in danger except a body, albeit very rich. Amusing and touching and grandly small.
