Trop Belle Pour Toi
Director: Bertrand Blier
Gérard Depardieu, Josiane Balasko, Carole Bouquet, Rolland Blanche Barthélémy
Bernard, owner of a BMW dealership, is married to the beautiful Florence, but falls in love with a very plain-looking woman, Colette, his Temp. Depardieu has a field day as the wandering, love-torn, indecisive husband while the unpredictable plot veers from the ludicrous to the bizarre. Maybe not the most PC film we’ve ever screened, but somehow French cinema handles the uncertain vagaries of human relationships with a certain sensibility that evades the rest of us. Besides, it is another cracking Depardieu gem and he’s not the Fleapit’s favourite Frenchman for nothing…
