"Édouard Georg À Cély" is a short fiction imagined by André Sauvage while he visits the painter and engraver Edouard Goerg. Monsieur Tesson has the habits of a lonely man: he is maniacal and misogynistic. To teach him a lesson, a couple of friends, the Cymboles, come to his house with a young woman, "Mademoiselle Anaïs", without telling him that she is married. Disturbed in his habits by visitors, Mr. Tesson welcomes them reluctantly. But gradually, a feeling of love for Anaïs leads her to give up her manic behavior. The three friends, judging that the joke has gone on long enough, end up letting go of him, pushing him away alone with his cat.
Reviews
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
