La Moustache

A thriller with a heavy hint of David Lynch. Marc (Vincent Lindon) decides to shave his moustache which he has had almost all his adult life. Much to his chagrin his wife, Agnes (Emmanuelle Devos), doesn't even notice. Neither does anyone else. Slowly Marc finds himself questioning his own existence. I just hope I really have a French beard and everyone is in agreement.

Thrilling movie it is, made with a lot of style. Much like many other stylish french movies - lot of brilliant performances, tightly shot, but somehow the end game disappoints. But thats ok, as ones used to it.
