Un baiser s’il vous plaît
By far, this is the worst french love comedy I have ever seen. It’s ranked even lower than “Belle de Jour” which was a huge disappointment for me as well. How should I put it – the dialogues were dumb, the characters horrible, Virginie Ledoyen is utterly boring as bourgeois housewife who keeps wearing these horribly conservative outfits and this damn pearl necklace. Of course I kind of liked the film considering that I actually like all films in which the relationship between the characters plays an important role, but I can’t help but sigh out of annoyance every single time these characters another stupid thing. Oh. My.
Luckily, I have anticipated that this film could turn out like this a bit. I was intrigued because it’s been ages since I’ve seen La Ledoyen who I actually find rather pretty, and I wanted to go to the Cinema Paris again and show its lovely interior to Shii. With the choice between “Paris” and this film, I thought that this is the lesser of two evils. Despite my bad review, I don’t actually regret having seen this film, but I would only recommend this film to show what I do NOT want to see in a french movie ever again. A few years ago, I saw a silly softporn-like film with her in which she played a young girl playing around with some rich guy and making him all crazy about her. That one at least looked good, but I have no idea what the film was called.
