Alexandrine, 35, who everyone nicknames Didine, peacefully goes with the flow, the opposite of her best friend Muriel. In this way, she one day crosses the threshold of a elderly person caregivers’ agency where, faced with an extrovert teenager, a charming man, and a cruel, elderly woman, she takes hold of her existence and encounters love.

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Honestly, i didn't expect much of this movie and it appears it's a great one finally. Sure, the story about lost lovers is the typical french depressive soup but Geraldine has an monumental part. Her Didine character really embodies all her qualities : a caring, soft, sexy woman. She seems fragile, sensible, very well educated and her distinctive, musical voice soothes you. Another good point of the movie is its choice of thematic : the helpers of old people. This is rather a taboo as their lives are usually not told, kept hidden and dismissed but here the movie asks the right question and offers a few answers. At last, the pace is rather dynamic, the scenes are a change from the bedroom conversations and the solitary walks. Once the movie begins, you don't want to left it. If it's a bit annoying to see Geraldine's lover played by her actual husband because it's the proof that French cinema is an aristocratic world, I would however recommend this movie as the proof that Geraldine is definitely one of the best french actress !

Not even Géraldine Pailhas's natural beauty can save this awful film. Predictable from start to finish, unbearably judgmental, full of clichés would be too little to describe it. The royal Edith Scob has a nice out of character role, this time not as a classy mum like at "L'heure d'été" not as shiny as "SoeurThérèse.com"'s. Her "friend" (Julie Ferrier as "Muriel") being neurotic, too easy on men, shallow, bossy, hysterical, insecure, did I mention she's there only to force us to like our protagonist :)? She seems to be typecast: the same role (Éléonore) as in the much better: "Notre univers impitoyable".If you like corny manipulating TV films this is the one to get.PS: I can't believe Géraldine had a great almost main character at "L'Adversaire". What a waist of talent! She can definitely act, the trouble must be elsewhere.
