    Beautiful French gem

    France is, as we all know, a land distinctice for its incredible and unique filmmaking, and a great representation of the european style,

    This film, by an incredible director, is a great testament to both her abilities as a director, and yet again of the provice in the country as a filmmaking nation,

    The script is brilliant; truly unique, clever and unconventional in the best and most appreciated ways. The actors all do an incredible job at conveying it, and for sure gives some of the best performances throughout their careers.

    The cinematography, cutting and editing is unique and very characteristic and splendidly done,

    Overall, a beautiful piece that is very much recommended for any lover of film!

    Girl (jeune femme) gets dumped by boyfriend. All alone in Paris. Without money. Desperate. What next?

    Funny, sad, chaotic, true to life. Character study of a young woman (30) who has to learn to take care for herself for the first time in her life, now that she is without a boyfriend, without a job, without an appartment and without family. Sounds depressing enough, but this quirky French portrait of this young woman's struggle is fascinating and vivacious.

    Typical French character comedy,the way the French are good at it. Great acting. Lovely soundtrack. Endearing coming of age story.

    We all had been there.

    This movie is so warm , reflect alot of emotions . We all have this thing that we depend on so much , that makes us forget what we really are either you submit and go on or you fight and get out of your comfort zone .

    The acting is good . The writing is ok (the pregnant part was unnecessary) .

    Paris is not that dreamy city that we have in mind after all.

    Loneliness in Paris

    There has already been tons of features, small budget and of course forgotten films describing the daily life of more or less young people in Paris. In each of those movies, it's pretty difficult to build a real story or suspense, just a descriptio, the struggle for those people to work, make friends, or simply dating. Features which many people can recognize themselves in. This one makes no exception, it is sometimes a little funny, but never really a comedy. A sort of mix up between drama and comedy. A French speciality. A woman in her early thirties in search of herself...With no real ending at all. The life goes on. Topics already done billions times before, but I like. Only from time to time.

    Awful

    Jeune Femme / Montparnasse Bienenüe is perhaps the worst film I have ever seen. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME.
