Le nom des gens (2010)

Also Known As: The names of love
Year of first release: 2010
Director: Michel Leclerc
Actors: Jacques Gamblin, Sara Forestier
Country: F
Genre: Comedy
Conditions of visioning: 16.02.3013, City 46, OV
Synopsis: A young, extroverted left-wing activist who sleeps with her political opponents to convert them to her cause is successful until she meets her match. 
Review: This comedy spreads a huge energy, thanks Sara Forestier (L'esquive) and a poesie, thanks Jacques Gamblin (Mademoiselle, Le premier jour du reste de ta vie). Both are great actors and they show it again. The absurdity of some pieces of the story that nevertheless change lives reminds me the last Tarentino (Inglorious bastards and Django unchained). It reminds also to men that when THE woman comes into your life, it is a kind of big bang, in which you are shaked. And also to women that they cannot expect everything from THE man. The dialogues are extremely funny, again for their absurdity, for the clash of her young energy against his melancoly, for the clash of politics and real life. I laughed really a lot.
Rating: 8 /10
