          Money or Love?
          This film is very difficult to label. It's not really a crime comedy, nor really a romance. The criminal plot serves as a pretext to shoot the movie in Lebanon and on the green carpet of casinos, but is only a secondary element. Important moments are made up of human encounters, telescoping of different and picturesque personalities that nothing should bring together and yet ... In light and superficial airs, the film touches on very fundamental subjects: freedom, love and possession, the relationship to money... This film is filled with poetry and romantic moments and Mireille Darc is sublimely highlighted. The atmosphere and the characters are extremely endearing. I loved it!
