Pirandello in Paris, 29 July 2001
8/10
Author: Eric Sayettat (sayettat@hotmail.com) from Wellington, New Zealand

A very well constructed movie with good actors and the fabulously charming Jeannne Balibar.

Paris is the theater for the gathering of these ex-young characters in quest of their love destiny and unsure of their choices, still young but already delving into their past.

Her past common life with Pierre still haunts Jeanne. She has to meet him again and in so doing she is gradually going to drive others away from their certainties. Who is going to end up with whom, the questions remains open until the end?

The dialogues are very precise and shrewd and the ending reminds of one of these Pièces de Boulevard (light comedy of manners). Décors and sets are just as elegant as the actors and their costumes.

Philistines will say it is just another French flick with no apparent purpose no clearcut between good and evil... Others may see the continuation of Desplechin's movie (Ma vie sexuelle...) and of Jean Eustache's "La maman et la putain". Yes it is a genre of its own, constructed like a XIXth century novel but with very contemporary attitudes and characters. So theatrically French indeed !
