If you loved Broken English, try Chéri
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Comedy / Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Broken English, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Chéri is
Here's a film that wants to be your grandmother's favorite Merchant Ivory production. Set in Belle Epoque France, a young man ends his six-year affair with an older courtesan, as arranged by his mother. It's a shame they didn't just elope, as the film might have been more interesting.
