Viens chez moi, j'habite chez une copine
1981 Comedy
Review
Exemplary performances from Michel Blanc and Bernard Giraudeau transform a routine comedy
into a delightful comic romp, under the skilful direction of Patrice Leconte. Less
anarchic than Leconte’s previous
Les Bronzés films, Viens chez moi has the advantage of being
somewhat better written and better performed – in short, much nearer to the sophisticated
comedies with which Leconte is now better associated. Blanc and Giraudeau
work together surprisingly well, showing a complicity that makes both of their characters
sympathetic and credible. In addition to some very witty dialogue, the film is
best remembered for is visual jokes – such as those which abound in the night visit
to Guy’s loft apartment from Hell. All in all, a likeable and pretty undemanding
little film.
