Australia released, PAL/Region 4 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: French ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Subtitles ), ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: Agnès Jaoui follows her marvelous first feature, "The Taste of Others," with an equally delicious comedy, as tart as it is sweet, of ambition, miscommunication and egoism. Set in a Paris that seems to be populated entirely by artists and writers (some of whom also have beautiful houses in the country), the film affectionately tweaks the bad manners and complacency of France's intellectual elite. Jean-Pierre Bacri plays a famous novelist whose cavalier neglect of his slightly overweight daughter (Marilou Berry) is the moral pivot on which the complex plot turns. Ms. Jaoui plays the young woman's voice teacher, who husband is an up-and-coming novelist and who is either the film's most honest character or its most thorough-going hypocrite. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: Cannes Film Festival, Ceasar Awards, European Film Awards, Stockholm Film Festival,
