A very tasty comedy with a little French twist.
A random act of kindness snowballs into vivid proof that "no good deed goes unpunished" in Après Vous, the irresistible French comedy that garnered actor Daniel Auteuil (Girl on the Bridge, Jean de Florette) a César Award nomination for Best Actor. Antoine (Auteuil), a restaurant headwaiter, takes a shortcut through a park one night and spots Louis (José Garcia), a despondent, lovelorn stranger, attempting to kill himself. Antoine intervenes - despite Louis' vehement protests - and hustles him home to his apartment. And it isn't long before Antoine decided to fix all that is wrong in Louis's life. He artfully intercepts a suicide note sent to Louis's grandparents... riotously attempts to land Louis a job at his posh restaurant... and boldly attempts to mend the rifts between Louis and his former girlfriend, Blanche (Sandrine Kiberlain). But an unexpected twist of fate upsets Antoine's plans for Louis's "rehabilitation." Here's a surprising, dazzling comedy treat that sparkles like a bottle of fine wine.
