Un profil pour deux (2017)
Directed by Stéphane Robelin

Comedy / Romance

Film Synopsis

Since his wife's death, Pierre has become a total recluse.  Retired, he hasn't set foot outside his home for two years, and sees no reason why he should do so.  Naturally, his daughter is concerned over his state of mind and employs a young man named Alex to gain his confidence and introduce him to the joys of the internet.  Pierre proves to be a more than enthusiastic silver surfer and in no time he is checking out on-line dating sites.  On one such site he is instantly seduced by the profile of a ravishing young woman named Flora and hastily gets in touch with her, keeping from her his age and appearance.  In fact, he sends Alex's photograph in place of his own, a decision he quickly regrets.  When Flora gets back to him, Pierre hasn't the heart to tell her the truth, so he persuades Alex to go and meet her in his place.  Reluctantly, the young man agrees and, by passing himself off as Pierre, he succeeds in hooking the irresistible Flora.  This bizarre escapade suddenly reawakens Pierre's zest for life...

Franz Kafka's letters to his fiancée Felice Bauer not only reveal a soul in torment; they also give us a harrowing self-portrait of a man appalled by his own existence.
The greatest French Films of all time
sb-img-4
With so many great films to choose from, it's nigh on impossible to compile a short-list of the best 15 French films of all time - but here's our feeble attempt to do just that.
The best of American cinema
sb-img-26
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.
The best French Films of the 1910s
sb-img-2
In the 1910s, French cinema led the way with a new industry which actively encouraged innovation. From the serials of Louis Feuillade to the first auteur pieces of Abel Gance, this decade is rich in cinematic marvels.
