About Times Have Been Better
After moving in with his beau, 30ish banker Jérémy decides to let the cat out of the bag, telling his unsuspecting parents, Guy and Rosine, that he's gay. Though they've always envisioned themselves as enlightened, the news staggers Guy and Rosine -- who are determined to get to the root of Jérémy's homosexuality.
Directed by Régis Musset, Times Have Been Better leans on a strong ensemble — Charlotte de Turckheim, Bernard Le Coq, Arnaud Binard — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2006.

How to become a man when your mother and your closed circle have decided otherwise? This is the challenge Guillaume took up. The film recounts Guillaume's tragicomic battle from the young age of eight, as he adopts the role of a girl then of a homosexual... until, aged 30, he meets the woman who, after his mother, will become the other woman in his life.
