Forty-something Christine can hardly believe it when she finds out that
her partner Robert has been carrying on an affair with another woman
for several months. How could she have been so blind? Her
one refuge is the Beau-Grenelle district, where she can pour out her

emotional upsets. Christine is not one to admit defeat and, with
the help of her friends, she sets out to confront her loathsome
rival...

The best French Films of the 1920s
In the 1920s French cinema was at its most varied and stylish - witness the achievements of Abel Gance, Marcel L'Herbier, Jean Epstein and Jacques Feyder.
American film comedy had its heyday in the 1920s and '30s, but it remains an important genre and has given American cinema some of its enduring classics.
Since the 1920s, Hollywood has dominated the film industry, but that doesn't mean American cinema is all bad - America has produced so many great films that you could never watch them all in one lifetime.
