Scott R @ScottR Jun 3 NYT 1000 films. This had some powerful drama focusing on two homeless young ladies in Lille who can’t quite figure things out. Sharp contrasts in personality show how some people can let things roll off their back while others internalize things and this can cause them serious mental harm. Ultimately, I was frustrated with the characters and how they chose to engage with society and that turned me away from enjoying this more.

See more 02/25/2015 annoyingly boring. Bouchez's role as an androgynous infantile vagabond is just flippant. Her whispy voice, laissez-faire comportement, and ragged costumes suggests she's actually one of the lost boys of wonderland. Nothing really happens in this lazy 2h disillusionment. See more 07/29/2013 This little indy French film is very well written, srtongly acted by two ladies who have since shown how amazing actresses they are & produced with great honesty, never trying to fool anyone or being something it isn't. This is a simple story of two struggling young ladies who survive from odd jobs to plan B, but everything changes when one of them falls in love with a manipulative young man and slowly dive into madness, reckless behavior & anger. Two angels, one choosing the light of hope the other the darkness of an impossible love. A beautiful piece of cinema like only the French know how to do! See more 06/26/2013 A charming set of gals from two much different backgrounds become friends and collide their lives with a number of trying life situations. Very watchable. See more 04/27/2012 One of the better recent French films, with a pair of knockout performances from Bouchez and Reignier. Lovely largely handheld camerawork; lovely off-the-cuff low-budget filmaking. See more Read all reviews
