great film indeed, it was actually supposed to be a short film, but it
turned into a long feature...
actually, i thought "un air de famille" was excellent... if anybody else
felt the same, you could also check out "cuisine et dependances", which was
written by the same duo Agnès Jaoui/Phillippe Bacri (who also act in both
films)... i don't know if it was released in England...

For french films, avoid anything with Jean Lefevbre in it....

Cedric Klapisch has made quite a few decent films, "riens du tout" with the
wonderful fabrice lucchini, and "peril jeune" set in the early 70's...

There's quite a lot of fabulous films over here, trouble is, i can't
remember any at the moment... if anybody's interested, mail me, i might have
remembered by then...

Oh, and is there still no chance that Strasbourg date in October could be
mover to Toulouse?
