L'AMI DE MON AMIE (1987)

Cast

Plot

This is ostensibly a romantic comedy and provides a relaxing contrast to the hectic, lurid Hollywood contributions to the genre. Blanche has moved to Cergy-Pontoise to start a new job and finds herself befriended by the lively Lea. So begins a gently amoral tale of flirtation and friendship, poking affectionate fun at notions of fidelity and providing a humane alternative to the sense of finality that accompanies most romantic comedy endings. The fresh feel to the film will prove a winner with fans of Jean Renoir.
