About Hôtel de France
A French family is shown as they go through the daily routines of life. Arguing, feasting, crying, and yearning for love are just some of the human emotions encountered. The mood wavers between excessive noise to silence while those not participating in the conversations eavesdrop.
Directed by Patrice Chéreau, Hôtel de France leans on a strong ensemble — Laurent Grévill, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Vincent Perez — 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 1987.
