Elle & moi (1952)

English title: She and Me

The vicissitudes of a couple, starting with courtship, followed by their honeymoon, then their search for a house and finally their domestic problems, including their relationship with servants, with the couple's best friend, with the husband's former lover, their arguments over money problems, etc.

Comedy with somewhat dated notions. It's impeccably staged and acted, and, though not exactly hilarious, will probably make one smile during some bits. Apparently not many have seen it aside from prolific IMDB commenter dbdumonteil, who wrote a mostly correct review where he astutely points out that neither of the two protagonists works for a living.

Rating: 48
