Slight as a Summer breeze, and just as pleasant,

This review is from: Summer Things (Embrassez qui vous voudrez) (See How They Run) [NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Great Britain] (DVD)
Summer Things/Embrassez Quiz Vous Voudrez is one of those films that probably shouldn't really work but does. Based on a British novel by Joseph Connolly following various middle class characters (upwardly and downwardly mobile) on a holiday that takes in various affairs, jealousies and suicide attempts, it's a light confection that works surprisingly well, not least because people DON'T do the right thing (when estate agent Jacques Dutronc finds out an employee has reduced the price on a desperately short of cash friend's house for a backhander, he does nothing to rectify the situation). Much of what happens is fairly predictable, with the exception of Charlotte Rampling keeping her clothes on for once, but the performances are strong and Michel Blanc's direction keeps it all on track. Nothing profound, but surprisingly likeable.Extras are fairly light - just a trailer and a photo montage with an audio essay by the director. |
