Loosely connected by their friendship with older writer Adrien (Francois Cluzet), Gabriel (My Sex Life's Mathieu Amalric), Anne (8 Women's Virginie Ledoyen), Jenny (Va Savoir's Jeanne Balibar) and Jeremie (Lumumba's Alex Descas) are all profoundly affected by his seemingly unthinkable yet inevitable death. As Assayas' famously agile camera keenly observes his characters as they traverse their tangled lives, he charts their road to hard-won understanding with a mixture of rigor and tenderness. With a stellar soundtrack featuring Ali Farka Toure and Sonic Youth.               Critic's Reviews Shlomo Schwartzberg Boxoffice Online Read Review
