21 July 2006
Rumeurs is an amazing fresh comedy.

Benoit is a sport journalist, quite moody with a bad character. He loose his job in a newspaper and starts to write in Rumeurs, a monthly women magazine. Benoit will meet Esther, a nervous good-hearted perfect-freak ( love-hate relationship with really good moment), Helene a party animal, best pal of Esther, fashion victim with as much caractere then Benoit, and the indescriptible Mme Lauzon, the editor of Rumeurs. There is Frank the gay beauty editor and his fancy cat, the Casanova photographer, Benoit's crazy family and hyperactive son, his best pal, Pierre-Paul and his mid life-crisis...........

You have to watch it as Rumeurs is all always the text, really really good writer, Isabelle Langlois. It is funny, fresh, thoughtful. It is so nice to see such a TV show!

They are actually doing it in English, it will be based in Toronto with new cast. Dunno if it will be as good as the french an original, but the french version is definitely worth it. It is brilliantly written, good actor ( James Hydman is often in plays, really good actor) you laugh, you worry for the characters.

Well, find a way to see it!

Warning: Spoilers
This movie have a little something who make you happier. Like Amelie or Good Bye Lenin, you can be touch by this simple and lovely story. The Plot is simple. Fishing have gone down and all the people of a small island are unemployed. They are ready to do anything to work and be proud again. When a factory could be build on the Island if they can find a resident doctor, they gonna play the "play" of their life. Pretend to love and play cricket, put frozen fish in the water so the Doctor will finally catch one, listening to his phone calls..... This story is hilarious, really good dialogs, nice humor, never cheesy. I think everyone can be touch by this story of poor people struggling and lying only to get a better life. You should watch it ;)
