Old-style France on show in Bon Voyage
Jean-Paul Rappeneau
Gerard Depardieu, Isabelle Adjani, Peter Coyote
12.
The Germans are coming, so a group of people escape from Paris and hide out in a Bordeaux hotel. A very mixed group they are, too.
This almost old-fashioned film is one of those happy delights we so rarely come across, a wonderful mixture of high drama, comedy and farce, with a lovely performance from the delicious Adjani, playing an actress with an alarmingly disruptive effect on those around her.
It's a fluffy but charmingly entertaining piece.
