Synopsis

Odile is looking for a new, bigger apartment. Her younger sister Camille just completed her doctoral thesis has fallen in love with an estate agent who is responsible for Odile’s apartment and who has an elder employee.

Our take

Any fears that Alain Resnais’ bold experimentalism would mellow with age are roundly answered with this wonderful late-period musical. Dedicated to Dennis Potter—and borrowing his lip-synched explosions of feeling—Same Old Song embeds a simmering satire beneath its impassioned surfaces.
