Wonderful movie!

I do like surreal films and being a fan of Bertrand Blier found this movie very delightful. Extremely hilarious and well acted, this movie had me hooked right from the beginning. The movie basically handles the breaking down of a marriage due to an affair, and the emotions of the man and the other woman in particular.

The scenes at Depardieu's home with his family and the Schubert music in the background were very amusing. The three main actors were excellent. Carole Bouquet asking "Are there any more questions?" while having dinner with friends was just side-splitting. Josiane Balasko acts her part as the lovesick woman well. Depardieu as usual is an excellent mixture of his vulnerable and tough guy self.

The cinematography was first class and the music score resplendent. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending this film to any lover of international cinema and surrealistic films.
