If you loved Oh Mercy, try A Christmas Tale
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
Both films are directed by Arnaud Desplechin, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Oh Mercy, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Christmas Tale is
Here's a family get-together that promises to be as fun as possible. Junie Vuillard is sick, so her bickering relatives assemble at her house for the holidays. The familial resentments resurface, as expected. At least everyone got a free trip home, of sorts.
