RTLondon Evening StandardNov 27, 2009

Director and writer Rémi Bezançon has a view of family life at odds with that of our own curmudgeon Philip Larkin, and the final reel proves the point.

An ode to parenting, taken at a mature and sophisticated level. The pains and joys are represented well, without fanfare or histrionics
