Enormous

The film's desire to break up is interesting, with a provocative approach that turns an abusive relationship into an element of comedy. The husband's love is manipulative and oppressive here, but at no time justified. He is an asshole, but she is passive. It is one of the most disturbing portraits of a relationship. And, as the story progresses, the comedy gets blacker, darker, until the last part in which he remains in the shadow, while she lights up.

But at the end it s too much. The First half hour of the film is phemomenal, especially the editing is sharp, after that the film becomes more typical French, during the pregnancy, with over the top slapstick of the father who wants so badly a baby. It could have been a masterwork, but clichés about pregnancy are becoming to big and the film too long. I saw the première of the film in the International Film Festival Rotterdam. Still some moments I won ' t forget which is Good for a comedy

To the music, an ode to man and wife, an ode to the newborn child and an ode to all the people inbetween the the sowing of the seed and the final delivery, the therapeuts, the sage femmes the obstetricians and the simple nurse. if you have children, wanna have a child, or maybe pregnant by accident do try this film. me and my wife are both nurses( yes we met at school) ,had severe contractions and urges to push, so the real drama at the birth are very fluid , calm and utterly realisticly made.

its a comedy about a couple that havent even thought of a baby, but the husband suddenly gets the idea, and starts ''operation pregnancy'', and the methods used are pretty ingenious.

its a low budget production, a little bit slow and a tiny story, but its acting swells like the belly of this woman. i think the assisting cast, ''the proffesionals'' played their role extremely good. actually, this film could easily been used in the maternity classes, as a wake up call and for a good laugh to decrease the belly tension a bit.

so if youre in for the maternity ward tomorrow, do take this couples experiences along with you, a superbly made film thinks the grumpy old man.

A man switches her wife contraceptive pills with sugar pills because he wants a baby but she doesn't want and therefor he gets her pregnant against her will... and this is suposed to be a comedy...shockingly it's directed by a woman

The director introduced the film virtually from France complaining her politicized audience failed 2laff.

Here in NYC via FIAF WE GOT THE JOKE and the laughter here was Enorme beaucoup!!!

Pleez find a usa distributor. That big belly deserves the Big Screen ... 💘
