If you loved The Lost King, 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
Both films are directed by Stephen Frears, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Lost King, 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.
