3/5

This is business as usual for Becker, albeit with a fine turn from French stalwart, Patrick Chesnais.

2/5

[Looks] no further than the usual odd-couple clichs and opting for trite story beats rather than believable characterisation.

3/5

There's plenty to savour in Chesnais' expertly judged performance, while Becker's warmth towards the gentle pace of life in provincial France is palpable.

At least there was an ending.

i loved Chesnais's character development from an angry, impatient grouch to the man who regained some perspective and started embracing beauty all over again. this is a good film reminding us to get our perspectives right and how being a grouch isn't of much use to anyone at all!

2 lost souls, found on a chance road-trip. Excellent grumpy/angsty acting.

surjoué pas au niveau des acteurs mais du scénario, des dialogues, de la réalisation
