A fine French comedy-drama.

By turns hilarious and wounding.

Suave, witty and wonderfully acted ensemble piece.

The plot turns on the complicated lives of the daughters, who are played by Sabine Azema, Emmanuelle Beart, and Charlotte Gainsbourg; they, Fabian, and Rich are the main reasons for seeing this picture.

Enjoy Christmas in Paris, if you don't have enough problems of your own, with this slice of family life from French director Daniele Thompson.

Engaging in a soap operatic, rather glib way.
