Brilliant casting Catherine Deneuve, Michel Vuillermoz, Denis Podalydès saves the movie, which is otherwise a conformist comedy trying to portraiture Bernadette Chirac as a feminist and one of the most cunning maneuvering French politician who led the conservatives for 3 decades as a dumbass. A typical product of leftist french cinema, for people who like to hear what they want to hear.
Contrary to what the movie says, Jacques Chirac was not neglecting his anorexic daughter Laurence and his second one Claude was not a pretentious potiche. And Bernadette did support Sarkozy much more than needed.

If you've been following French politics, you might find it funny. Desjardins's postures are very close to the original, to the point you're disappointed he does not imitate the voice even more.
Ending is so so, but altogether a nice movie.

I believe you need to be born in the 60s to fully understand the mix of derision and nostalgia of this movie, surely the reason why most did not get it, considering the reviews.
The first half is better than the second, though.
