    One of the best movies I've recently watched. Hilarious, mean and lovely. A delightful dark comedy.

    Pauvre chien...

    This movie is so flippin' hilarious! Despite Tatie Danielle being such an old grouch, she really just needs someone who cares about her but who doesn't just feel pity for her. I can't help but laugh every time I think of all her little comments for her family members when she's "...( read more)forced" to live with them.

    dark French Comedy. Worth seeing, just to watch this old lady get away with everything from murder to burning down her nephew's apartment.

    Très bon film. Une peinture particulièrement juste de la société et des gens (cf. les expressions toutes faites, les relations familiales, les relations professionnelles, etc.). Quelques passages auraient gagné à être supprimés pour gagner en rythme.

    Or how to make the life of your inlaws miserable...
    In fact: how to make everybody's life miserable.
    Luckily, we've got the help in the house to deliver us from evil, the hard way.

    I watched this long ago and remember it having one of the most brutal and badass grandmothers ever on screen.
