5/10
Mostly mid but no dud
12 April 2023
Great actors (I couldn't believe the main character is 92, her actress is 94?!), the dialogues are alright, some high points about the injustices against women in France but unfortunately the story contains a lot of overdone plot points. The ending is VERY cliché and it almost feels like the movie is skipping too much of Madeleines life. Not filled to the brim with jokes but the humour is mostly right on target. Heavy portrayal of domestic violence which at points felt exploitative even though it takes the matter very serious.

Overall a small movie which still should be enjoyable for fans of Paris and the actors.
