A group of friends gathers for a nice evening together, and suddenly their dirty secrets begin to pop out in the open... one after the other. Everyone gets his share of a pie in the face.

And old familiar recipe for an often stimulating movie... intellectual, you might say, if that floats your snobbish boat.

I will not bother mentioning the other well known films in this genre, but "What's in a Name" is your typical French fluff, with gorgeous shots of Paris, a fantastic city apartment, a 500 Euro bottle of wine and people you would normally be inclined to like.

Anyway, a great family or a date flick, quite good overall, with some familiar faces - totally easy to recommend!

From there - let;s step back smack into 1964, to the torturous "Le Repas des Fauves" by Christian-Jaque... if you are lucky enough to find it. We saw it on one of the Russian movies sites, with its horrible, horrible Russian dubbing.

Yep... you guessed it... a group of friends gathers... except it is now Paris of 1942 and things that might mean an embarrassment in 2012 now smell of death. And another Yep - all the participants are brutally exposed, stripped of their glossy coats.

A wonderful pair of films, to be sure.
