  With a first-rate cast and a great soundtrack, this is a compelling film that already begins in an impressive plan-séquence. Warm-hearted and funny, though with a maudlin conclusion, it centers on a group of characters who are flawed and entirely human - like they should be.

  Some of the best character development I've ever seen. Also, this is the first movie that ever made me cry in theatres. I pretty much loved it and decided to overcome its flaws, which actually allow the viewer to omit them only if they have a heart. Cause this movie is going straight for yours.

  <i>"Call yourselves friends? You buy into each other's lies."</i> Every year, Max, a successful restaurant owner, and Véro, his eco-friendly wife invite a merry group of friends to their beautiful beach house to celebrate Antoine's birthday and kick-start the vacation. But, this year, before they all leave Paris, their buddy Ludo is hurt in a serious accident, which sets off a dramatic chain of reactions and emotional responses. <center><font size=+2 face="Century Schoolbook"><b><u>REVIEW</u></b></font></center> This is our old friend the catalyst plot in which a stranger insinuates himself into a community, group, and causes mayhem until by the end the screen is littered with skeletons emerging from closets. Guillaume Canet has added spin to this trite plot by having the catalyst not coming into the group but leaving it. In short a long established group of friends spend a month each year on vacation as the guest of Max, a self-made successful businessman. On the eve of this years vacation one of the group, Jean Dujardin, is involved in a horrific road accident that eventually proves terminal. The friends opt to go on vacation anyway on the grounds that they are impotent so far as practical help goes. This decision, natch, unleashes all sorts of revelations, home truths, violence etc. Canet is a highly accomplished writer director and whilst this entry lacks the thrills and tension of Tell No One - which was adapted from a best selling novel rather than an Original screenplay as here - he still draws outstanding performances from the entire ensemble. Catch it if you can.

  A wonderful European gem with a great cast and a well written script built on intriguing characters with Woody Allen-esque obsessions that during their most recent vacation are confronted with truths which they would have rather not known. A tad longer than I would have liked it to be, it nevertheless left me with a warm feeling inside.

  Good French drama with François Cluzet and Marion Cotillard. Little White Lies (Les Petits Mouchoirs) is about eight friends who are settling into middle age have for years observed an annual tradition where they get together to enjoy some vacation time. However, fate has put a damper on this year's gathering when one of the group, Ludo, ends up in the hospital after an auto accident. They all believe honesty is not the best policy until the shit hits the fan. Little White Lies is very well made and acted, and even though it was 2 and a half hours long, there was always something going on to keep me engaged. Overall, worth looking out for.
