About À deux minutes près
In this romantic comedy, an astrologer matches up two people who are married to other people. Each is convinced that what they need in order to have a more fulfilling life is an extramarital affair, and they intend to take their medicine, no matter how distatsteful it proves to be. Luckly for the audience, it proves to be awful indeed, as they attempt to set fire to this soggy fuel for romance in a series of ill-starred dates.
Directed by Eric Le Hung, À deux minutes près leans on a strong ensemble — Charlotte de Turckheim, Jacques Weber, François-Eric Gendron — 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 screen titles of 1989.
