When was the last time you fell absolutely head-over-heels in love with a leading lady? That’s just what will happen as you watch the wonderful Sara Forestier (Perfume) in this delightful romantic comedy. In the movie, Forestier plays Baya, a liberal young woman who has a unique way of changing the political world: she sleeps with the right wing politicians she doesn’t agree with until they change their outlook. Then she moves on to the next. Her plan for French domination hits a snag, though, when she meets a lonely bird expert, Arthur Martin (Jacques Gamblin) with no political or personal inclinations of his own beyond making her happy. The film’s probably a lot more scathing to French audiences who get all the political barbs thrown by director Michel Leclerc, but lack of insight into Parisian politics won’t stop you from loving every frame that Forestier appears in.
