Apres Vous, in which men try to help each other
One more French movie tonight and then I'm going back to American movies - Apres Vous (2005), in which Daniel Auteuil plays a restaurant manager who saves a stranger from killing himself, and proceeds to try to fix everything in the man's life.
The movie could have been a great black comedy, but fell apart when Auteuil's character tried to resuscitate the man's love life. It also could have been a funny exploration of a codependent friendship between two straight men, with one meddling like an old lady in the other one's life, but it didn't work on that level either.
