The Observer & The independent reviews for Looking for hortense (Cherchez Hortense) with Jean-Pierre Bacri and Kristin Scott Thomas (August 2013)

Some extracts from the positive reviews on the observer and The Independent for Looking for Hortense (Cherchez Hortense) by pascal Bonitzer with Jean-Pierre Bacri and Kristin Scott Thomas that debuted in Great Britain last weekend:

 By Geoffrey Macnab for The Independent:
"Pascal Bonitzer's droll, very French comedy benefits from a wonderful performance from Jean-Pierre Bacri as a crumpled, middle-aged academic with a messy private life."... "The script is convoluted and heavy on coincidence, but Bonitzer squeezes out plenty of humour from the increasingly desperate behaviour of his lead character. Scott Thomas is equally impressive as the haughty Iva, who almost immediately regrets her affair"... To read all the review click here


 From Philip French for The Observer:
"In this attractive family drama, Pascal Bonitzer, a former critic for Cahiers du Cinéma, is surprisingly close to the traditional, neatly turned middle-class cinéma de papa that Truffaut and other new wave directors scorned. Both of them exuding characteristic intelligence,Jean-Pierre Bacri and Kristin Scott Thomasplay a well-off Parisian couple with an adolescent son". To read all the review click here
