I usually dont like musicals. But this one is so light…
The dialogues, the songs, the conflicts everything happens naturally.
A pleasent movie, the songs give you joy or make you suffer with the characters.
Loved the songs, loved the movie!
An unpretentious musical that makes you finish the movie with a good feeling.
And I just cant comment about louis, just love his facial expressions, the way that he communicates
only staring.

And I thought it was impossible to fuck up a musical filmed in the streets of Paris. Not only is his subject ugly (and Honore claims to be shocked that audiences would find his protagonist unlikeable), he films them badly. Really, how do you render such gorgeous subjects as Louis Garrel and Clotilde Hesme so unappealing? He shoots the film in the same streets that Godard shot A Woman is a Woman, even attempting to copy shots from the original. We all suffer for the comparison.
