I wish i could follow French films without subtitles. Alas that is not one of my skills, yet i got so lost in this so very off beat period piece and it's magnificent central performance from a simply marvellous Catherine Frot, a superb talent unknown to me until now,that the subtitles somehow vanished from my consciousness.I will give nothing away except to say it is set and lavishly so among the idle rich of France immediately after the end of the great war which must of been a very bitter time after so much loss of life and limb for so little, and a time little covered by film makers. A very well made little film that rewards patience.
