TRILOGY TWO: AN AMAZING COUPLE (2003)

Cast

Plot

Trilogy consists of three stand alone stories, all set in Grenoble, and three different genres, thriller, comedy and melodrama, that taken as a whole become inextricably linked. A contemporary tour de force by Lucas Belvaux that calls to mind Kieslowski's ‘Three Colours' trilogy. In this, the second and, perhaps, the least of the films, Alain and Cecile are deeply in love, but, when he suspects that he may be dying, Alain takes the decision to keep his fears from Cecile, an act designed to protect her from heartache, but which merely arouses her jealousy and ultimately leads to the accusation of infidelity. An Amazing Couple is a light, observational comedy of escalating misunderstanding.
