The way this film just builds-up tension is just genius. It's a cynical look at the pressure-points of low-paid work and very stressed staff seeking a new opportunity yet with every problem thrown in.
It's got fabulous acting. I love Laure Calamy as Julie Roy. Cyril Gueï as Vincent and Olivier Faliez as Paul the car man are great supporting roles. Geneviève Mnich is fabulous as is Madame Lusigny and so is Anne Suarez as Sylvie.
Wow. It's got some great cinema style taken from France's best like Chabrol and Godard and some fast tracking camera movements. The shoot is on location en Paris as well as the suburbs.
This movie has got the pressure points of working in the supply-chain absolutely nailed. I experienced this myself and nearly had a mental breakdown one day so I fully-understand how real it is and how close she was to this happening. The crying at the end is so beautiful and pongent! Rich people and politicians need to see this movie!
Throw in an absent arsehole father who doesn't pay the bills for their kids who are awesome kids makes it even more fueled with suspense and emotion!
It's got great camera angles and it is real cinema. It's not pretentious and it doesn't need a stupid-high budget. The cinema is clever; assured and professional. I can see why it won the gong at Venice!
I'm going to look out for the Director's other work. Grande cinema!
I'm a fan!
C'est bon!
