Info

Emile is a 70-ish former horticulturalist who once raised bonsai trees "because they don't take up too much room." Indeed, his whole existence is safe and uneventful to a fault, somewhat juiced by friendship with raucous fishing companion Edmond. Still, they trade pleasantries rather than confidences -- so Emile is shocked when it turns out his elderly pal watches porn, paints nudes and shags women who are his contemporaries that he meets online.

Wandering Streams Audience Reviews

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
dbdumonteil (English equivalent of this famous French proverb ): "great oaks from little acorns grow"Pascal Rabaté takes a taboo subject (seventy -something's sexuality) and gives it a cheerful treatment;although the screenplay looses steam in the last third ,with hackneyed clichés such as the neo- hippie community and the girl-doing-soul-searching and a pointless trick as the providential car crash,it is pleasant to watch.The choice of the actors is amazing:pitting a comedy actor such as Daniel Prevost against the most cerebral French actress might have been downright embarrassing,particularly for someone like me who is not exactly a Bulle Ogier fan . But it works :the scenes between Prevost and Ogier,against all odds ,ring true ,particularly the Thé Dansant.There are good moments ,mostly in the first part:-the two pals,fishing in the river;then ,after Edmond's death,Emile by the river ,with two fishing rods ,but alone..-the afternoon with the son and the daughter-in-law ,in which all the lines hit home .-After the car crash ,the relationship with the retired schoolteacher is a little botched ,but saved by Hélène Vincent (whose performances in "La Vie Est Un Long Fleuve Tranquille " and "Quelques Heures De Printemps" remain memorable).A lot of nudity ;only those in Emile's mind are a bit embarrassing.Like this ? Try these ...."La Vieille Dame Indigne" (René Allio,1970)"About Schmidt " Alexander Payne ,2002)
