La vie rêvée des anges (1998)
(The Dream Life of Angels)
Country: FR
Technical: col 113m
Director: Erick Zonca
Cast: Elodie Bouchez, Natacha Regnier
Synopsis:
A girl without fixed abode moves in with another who is occupying a Lille flat belonging to victims of a car crash. Taking an interest in the surviving daughter, she visits her in hospital, and while the latter gradually recovers from her coma, the flatmate succumbs to a self-victimizing liaison with a bar owner.
Review:
Absorbing but finally tiring study of two very different case histories, though ones with similar starting points: both girls have resented father figures in their lives. The free-spirited Isa does her best for both and is poorly rewarded.
