Le Week-End

Crit

Just in case Céline and Jesse don't get around to the age-60 chapter of their story, this can stand in for it. Nick (Jim Broadbent) remarks to Meg (Lindsay Duncan) at one point that it's not possible for one not to love and hate the same person, sometimes within minutes, and that's this beautiful scary film in a nutshell. The leads are perfect as 30-years marrieds who always are together against the world, even when--especially when?--they are also against each other. I know that feeling. Jeff Goldblum steals some scenes by playing Jeff Goldblum as only he can. Between this and The Grand Budapest Hotel, he has made me smile a lot in the past couple of weeks.
