La Crise (1992)

English title: The Crisis.

Synopsis: A man is abandoned by his wife in the same day that he loses his job. He meets a stranger in a bar who starts following him everywhere.

Appraisal: This is my second viewing. It starts as a comedy with a theatrical penchant; the comicity just sets the ground for the simplistic moralism of the second act. I'm a little perplexed at my former positive evaluation.

Rating: 44 (down from 55)
