Three old friends in their 70s have all sorts of problems with money with the times having changed and the values of the neoliberal modern day playing havoc with Their psyches.
There is also a granddaughter who is a puppeteer And some story in the village going back to the end of the second World war. Some feud. Something nobody will mention.
The granddaughter is trying to work it out as she has recently moved there from Paris. She cannot understand the dynamics of her new home.
This takes forever to get somewhere as a story but nobody is in any rush since Pierre Richard And Eddy Mitchell are So entertaining That no one will be in a hurry to get there. Pierre Richard Was well known in the 1970s for a series of stupid comedy films which I always found personally totally unfunny
But here in 2022 with a head full of white hair and huge glasses he is totally hilarious.
Eddy Mitchell has been so deeply wEdged Into French society that it would be impossible not to remember him he was part of the yéyé Movement of the early 1960s copying the nascent rock music movement which came over from America. In latter years he became an actor and has a huge on-screen presence.
The granddaughter here Alice Pol is also very good. I think I have seen her in other films but cannot remember which.
Anyway it's simmers quietly until the end when in a beautiful home in Italy all is revealed all the ghastly shenanigans of 1945 which took place when the boys were merely 10.
In many ways it is a story a social painting of events which have coloured the life of French society for 70 years And why I would term this a karmic tale ...
Is it a masterpiece? No ... Is it funny? Most definitely Most Viewers will enjoy this.
