THE PRICE TO PAY
Le prix à payer
The new battle-of-the-sexes comedy from writer-director Alexandra Leclere (Me and
My Sister) is an outrageous farce with a
cynical subtext, and rocketed to number
one at the French box office last April.
Odile (Nathalie Baye, in top form) is an
rich housewife who has little else to do in
life but shop, visit beauty salons, and fend
off the amorous advances of her husband
Jean-Pierre (Christian Clavier). Frustrated
by the separate bedrooms and the
absence of intimacy, on the questionable
advice of his driver Jean-Pierre decides
that his home situation and wife's life of
leisure must be renegotiated. "No sex, no
money!" he announces delicately... Let
the games begin!
