Audience Member a study of obsession , its desperation and its loneliness - very well done indeed Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member tres bon role de karine viard Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Camille is shagging her way aroung paris until she meets Alexis, a happily married political activist. She falls in love with him, and decides to wait for him to fall in love with her. Typically french, but the whole story just seemed a little too unrealistic for me Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Good French drama about relationships, the lead character is often dislikeable, but it seems to make the film more endearing Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Genial, a mourir de rire et tellement vrai ! Karin Viard est absolument hilarante dans ce film, qui retrace l'histoire des "Eve" d'aujourd'hui : gaffeuse, charmante, tete a claque ! Un veritable film de chevet pour les trentenaires en mal d'amour et bien plus subtil dans sa critique que Bridget Jones ! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member je t'aime t'es mon bonheur que c'est beau Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
