Little White Lies

Guiallme Canet previously directed the excellent Tell No One so I went along to Little White Lies with high hopes of some excellent French cinema. And it certainly is very French.

A group of friends go to the coast to spend the holidays at their rich friends villa. Much wining, dining and philosophising ensues. If anything a bit too much ensues. About an hour too much.

I quite enjoyed the film, at least in part because I enjoy French cinema style but the main characters all need a slap so by the end I felt a bit weary and the trite end undercut the main point of the film leaving it feeling hollow.
