Seydoux is always worth watching even with the unbecoming, cropped hairstyle she adopts here.

“One Fine Morning” offers a frank look at the casual cruelty with which we treat the elderly. But the counterpoint to that point – a rather lackluster romance – brings the film down.

4/5

Mia Hansen-Løve’s One Fine Morning is a humorous and incredibly charming romantic drama about finding love when you least expect it – with an excellent performance from Léa Seydoux.

Having lost her father to Benson’s syndrome during the pandemic and never getting the chance to bid farewell to him, Mia Hansen-Løve’s film feels like her final goodbye to his spirit and her attempt at seeking closure.

Typical, boring and repetitive. It’s basically the quintessential French movie and that’s not a good thing, also what we’ve come to expect from Lea as an actress. Would not recommend.

Young Parisian widow, with endearing child, has an affair with a married man while coping with her retired philosophy lecturer (he would be, its a French film) father's mental decline. A sensitive study if slow. But there is a feeling of having seen this study of Parisian bourgeois life many times before.

Lea Seydoux is sublime in this tender and moving tale of a young widow raising her daughter, helping her aging father and falling in love with a married man. Navigating through life’s complex emotions in a way only the French can do, this is understated and intoxicatingly sexy. Enjoy.

Ooof this one is full of complicated feelings, but it also doesn’t wallow in them.

Strong performances. The film transports you to the simple pleasures, the basic desires, and the sorrowful events that make our ordinary lives painful and worth living at the same time. It's my favorite style of French film making: a close up lens on ordinary lives.
