When a man (François Morel) begins behaving oddly, his wife (Ornella Muti) worries that he may be having an affair.

Each movie casts light on the others. And after watching all three, a profound blending of the stories percolates in your head.

Belvaux beautifully controls all three styles and stories -- even though he's least successful with the comedy Couple.

Rated: 3/4

Charmingly offbeat in the vein of early Woody Allen.

GÃ©nial. Ce sont pas trois films qui raconte une histoire, c'est une histoire filmÃ© 3 fois. Ãa se coupe, Ã§a se recoupe et surtout Ã§a se dÃ©coupe. Les opinions sur certains personnages changent d'un film Ã l'autre, des personnages qui passent de protagoniste Ã secondaire: j'insiste, c'est gÃ©nial. Et pris sÃ©parÃ©ment? Oui c'est possible de n'en voir qu'un des trois: comme c'est possible de manger un Ã©clair au chocolat sans toucher au chocolat... ;-)

The second film in Trilogy is a hilarious comedy about a man who believes he has very little time left and therefore he plans his own testament. This is a french comedy that - unlike many other french comedies - is toned down, and that makes it really fun to watch. Especially scenes like when Alain changes his will according to what he encounters during his day. The film has scenes that is nicely incorporated into the previous story. Looking forward to the last chapter.

Ok. Disappointing after the pace of the first film. Expected more cross-references

The trilogy gets slightly derailed in this second instalment but it is still worth watching.

Belvaux's trilogy is an absolute joy. 3 films in completely different genres with overlapping plot lines, each focusing on different characters, but revisiting some scenes and adding some hidden detail. Take the day off and watch the 3 of them back to back. Fantastic :)
