The film borrows its title from poet Paul Verlaine whose lines are quoted before the cast and credits to give the viewer the feeling he's going to watch a serious "meaningful " work .
The start is promising: a young storyteller computer analyst is hired to fix a computer of a supermarket which displays "error" ;.the action takes place by the sea near a cliff ,but it takes almost an hour to take off :and when it does,the screenplay is not original enough to justify this "ill wind" ; of course ,there's the obligatory sex scene,the obligatory "accident from the cliff" ,the obligatory car chase ; and as for the crime, the director is anxious to explain the whodunit to us when one does not care anymore.
The principal gives a johnny-one-note performance ; in the cast,only seasoned Bernard Le Coq plays his game well.
