Synopsis
In Betrand Blier's MERCI LA VIE, two young women at the end of their ropes--Camille (Charlotte Gainsbourg) and Joelle (Anounk Grinberg)--cause mayhem in a small town. A dark, surreal comedy, Blier's film is perplexing, shocking, and fascinating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Disturbing, and/yet captivating, 19 Feb 2002
An easy watch, not. Its timeline shifts unapologetically from late 80s to Occupation-era France and back again, with characters and themes spilling between the two. Just as one becomes accustomed to a (relatively) starightforward tale of Love In A Modern Age (infidelity, AIDS, collapse of the family model) MLV is shunted backwards violently to a period which defined Western Europe - and in which in its depiction earned the film a mixed reception on its French debut. Gainsbourg (as ever) and Anouk Grinberg carry the film, but there's a range of star turns along the way including a dark tour de force from M. Depardieu. Listen out too for Arno's franglais soundtrack - and spare some saline for the closing sequence, as Blier reminds us what lies ahead.
