Writer, director, and actor
Yvan Attal takes another look at the ups and downs of love and monogamy in this biting
romantic comedy.
Vincent (
Yvan Attal),
Fred (
Alain Cohen), and
Georges (
Alain Chabat) are three Parisian men in their early forties who are coming to the unfortunate realization that their love lives are not what they dreamed of in their youth.
Vincent is married to
Gabrielle (
Charlotte Gainsbourg), and while there's still some spark left in their marriage, it usually appears only after an argument.
Vincent is having a furtive affair with a beautiful woman (
Angie David), while
Gabrielle is tempted to do the same when a handsome man in a record shop (
Johnny Depp) begins silently flirting with her.
Fred is the bachelor of the group, and seems to have an endless parade of women passing through his bedroom, but no one misses the fact that he longs for the sort of long-term relationship that has so far evaded him. And
Georges is reaching the end of his rope with his wife,
Nathalie (
Emmanuelle Seigner), an abrasive feminist who insists on making every aspect of their lives a political matter, but lacking the courage to break up with her,
Georges deals with his feelings in the traditional manner -- he buys a new car.
Happily Ever After was
Attal's first project as writer and director after his international hit
Ma Femme Est une Actrice.
