Film: The Women On the 6th FloorSunday 5 February, 3pm & 6pmPG : France : Drama/Comedy : 106 mins It’s Paris, 1962. The marvellous Fabrice Luchini (Potiche) stars as wealthy stockbroker Jean-Louis Jouvert, who lives a bourgeois existence with his neurotic socialite wife (Sandrine Kiberlain). But when the family’s maid abandons them, into the household comes Maria (Natalia Verbeke): young, hardworking, and – quelle horreur - Spanish! Remarkably, it doesn’t take long for the building to become enchanted by the new arrival; Maria rallies the friendship of the other servants on the sixth floor and soon, the balance of the household ruptures into wild, cross-cultural chaos… Directed with verve and charm by the talented director Le Guay, The Women On the 6th Floor is a warm-hearted delight, in any language. Luchini and Kiberlain are terrific as the sombre couple brought to life and then nearly to breaking point, when Jean-Louis discovers a room of his own on the 6th floor. In the maids' company - and in the company of beautiful Maria - Jean-Louis will gradually become a changed man.Watch the trailer here..._____________________________________________________________HOT OFF THE PRESS!
