If you loved Mirage de la vie, try Tout ce que le ciel permet
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Douglas Sirk, and they both carry the bittersweet, outsider, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mirage de la vie, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tout ce que le ciel permet is
A 1950s melodrama about love that dares not check its privilege between a wealthy widow and her arborist beau. Her children and golf buddies at the club insist she knows her place. It soars like a weepie kite with a flawless cast.
