Lotterywest Festival Films :: French Film

French Film

Director: Jackie Oudney · 88min · M

Don’t be fooled by its name – this is a thoroughly British comedy about how French and English cultures differ in their attitudes towards relationships.

The worldly and somewhat jaded Jed (Hugh Bonneville) prepares to interview a French film-maker and self-appointed expert on the nature of love and life. Jed casually dismisses the auteur as a pompous know-all until his own relationship with longtime girlfriend Cheryl (Victoria Hamilton) starts to fall apart. Before long, everyone is talking about love, from Jed’s counsellor to his drinking buddy (a fantastic performance from Douglas Henshall) and friends. Could the French be on to something? Decide for yourself.
