I would like someone to wait for me somewhere: What is the adaptation of Anna Galvalda’s collection worth?
Arnaud Viard (Clara et moi) adapts it with Jean-Paul Rouve, Alice Taglioni, Aurore Clément…
Early 2020 was released in cinemas I would like someone to wait for me somewhere. This French comedy-drama will be rebroadcast this evening on France 2. Is it worth a watch? Here is our review.
Arnaud Viard (Clara and I) pecked into the collection of short stories of the same name by Anna Gavalda to produce a feature film bringing together several of the protagonists imagined by the novelist. In the film, it is about siblings gathered around the mother (Aurore Clément). There is Jean-Pierre (Jean-Paul Rouve), the eldest, who keeps everyone at arm’s length, Juliette (Alice Taglioni), pregnant at 40, who dreams of being a novelist, Mathieu (Benjamin Lavernhe) , the shy man incapable of declaring himself and Margaux (Camille Rowe), the radical but penniless photographer. A French specialty, the family film no longer surprises the diligent spectator who will quite easily guess the seams of it and who will be interested above all in the performances of the actors. Each of them subtly brings its own color.
