Summary
For several years, Patrick has been leading a double life. He divides his time between
his devoted wife Hélène, who has given him two sons, and his possessive
mistress Elisabeth, the mother of his daughter. No one knows the truth and everything
runs smoothly – until the day when Hélène organises a party to celebrate
their wedding anniversary. This just happens to fall on a day which Patrick has
promised to spend with Elisabeth…
Review
This routine comedy was the first film to be directed by the comic actor Martin Lamotte,
who is probably best known for his stage and film appearances with the comic troupe L'équipe
du Splendid. Whilst it’s not a bad effort, the film does lack sparkle and some of
the comic situations feel laboured or slightly juvenile. Lamotte does however make
effective use of his great cast, and there is a particularly engaging performance from
Catherine Frot.
