About Le Tiers providentiel
In a supermarket parking lot, two shoppers push a shopping cart to their car. A helpful man approaches them. Friendly at first, his behavior soon becomes strange, invasive and aggressive.
Directed by Gérard Frot-Coutaz, Le Tiers providentiel leans on a strong ensemble — Jacques Nolot, Sophie Amaury, Patricia Houyoux — 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 1986.
