Review of May Fools

May Fools (1990)
8/10
One of Louis Malle's oft-overlooked gems
18 February 2021
French cities are in tatters as students and workers unite against capitalism and consumerism. Meanwhile, a bourgeois family in Provence bickers over inheritance before its deceased matriarch has even been put in the ground. Milou en mai is rather like a Luis Buñuel film but with the surrealism dialled all the way down. Surprisingly fun.
