Nine years after his wife left him for his best friend, hapless journalist Abel (Louis Garrel) falls into a relationship with recently widowed old flame Marianne (Laetitia Casta). Drama ensues when a wily jeune femme (Lily-Rose Depp) professes her love and Marianne’s young son insists that his mother intentionally poisoned his father. This delightful sophomore feature from actor/director Louis Garrel—co-written with the legendary Jean-Claude Carrière—is a farcical Parisian romp that playfully subverts the patriarchal conventions of the French New Wave. A Kino Lorber release
