The Dinner Game I missed... I remember seeing it many times on the shelf, but never picking it up. I think I will now.I just LOVED that one comment by a viewer called Varlaam... hmmm... bet my dollar he is a Russian emigre'... or a Georgian, perhaps.
Anyways, sez Varlaam:
"France's most popular film of the past 52-week period, according to a recent issue of Studio magazine. That's based on the number of admissions in France, over 9 million.
What is wrong here? Why have the French been flocking to see a movie which is very funny, very well-acted, and very un-American? LBJ's old hatchetman, Jack Valenti of the MPAA, is trying to figure out ways right now to force the French to watch more bloody idiotic American asteroid movies. How dare they try to have a film industry of their own."
Bummer...
Follow Ups:
The dinner is FABULOUS! Certainly one of the best " French arrogant comedy of the last 10 years!
I look at it...to my ( false ) shame three times..and I am not coming to an halt...
The closet is very funny but do not have thit intensity.
One word.
Go BUY it and your whole family will like it..It just call the bad things burried in us to the surface....
In the end the moral´s morale is of course saved.
Get it.
Saw it. It was a minor sitcom of a movie. As clever and dynamic as an episode of "Cheers".
As I do not knows " Cheers "...
But if the translation is not I fault, our opinions it seems diverse widely.
The assholes dinner is a gem.
Of course you need a certain kind of French arrogant humor...
Yes, it could be that much of the subtlty was lost in translation. Subtitles leave out the sarcasm and the tone of speach.Of course, this goes both ways . . . perhaps this is why so much in American movies fails for you too.
That is a BIG problem, but you can still recognise the quality of one film.
I look as often I can to the original copy.
Don't know "Cheers"? Believe me, you haven't missed much.
No, I don´t ...mieux vaut une tete bien faite q´une bien pleine....
