Simple delights in 'Summer Hours'
Director: Oliver Assayas
Cast: Charles Berling, Juliette Binoche
Cert: 12
Only the French could get so much from a conventional family drama about two brothers and a sister returning home for their mother’s birthday … seemingly more interested in finding out what might be in it for them.
It’s a strong, character-driven drama that maintains its brittle strength … and the locations do it no harm either.
Star Rating: 4/5
