About this product

Product Information

Daniel Auteil sheds the dramatic character of Michael HannekeÆs CACHE to star in this light French comedy. Auteil plays Francois, an antiques dealer who finds it far easier to locate an Art Deco rarity than a true friend. He has plenty of professional contacts, but an utter lack of people skills leaves him alone after office hours. His business partner bets an expensive vase that he canÆt produce a friend within 10 days, and Francois struggles to pick out a best friend in an address book full of acquaintances and childhood chums. He keeps running into fellow loner Bruno (Dany Boon, THE VALET), who is friendly but canÆt trust anyone. Bruno teaches him to be sociable as Francois continues his search. Even though MY BEST FRIEND centers on a manÆs search for a friend, it resembles a standard romantic comedy in its structure. It may lack an innovative plot, but this French gem makes up for it in charm. Auteil plays Francois with such energy that itÆs hard not to have affection for the man. Director Patrice Leconte has blended darkness and light in his past films such as THE MAN ON THE TRAIN, and he succeeds again here. Though MY BEST FRIEND is largely an enjoyable affair, there is an undercurrent of sadness throughout much of the film that keeps it from being too sweet.
