Bachelor Days Are Over

A couple of days before their wedding, Anna disappears and Arnaud is left alone with his neurotic mother and sister, to welcome the Israeli side of his future wife’s family and to organize a ceremony he may in fact wish to avoid. Affected by the stress caused by his upcoming commitment, Arnaud sinks in the turmoil of existential crisis; he deals with this by drinking with his buddies and having sex with a cabaret singer. When Anna comes back, though, Arnaud will face the greatest dilemma of his life. The biggest pop star of France, Benjamin Biolay, stars in the most imaginative French comedy of the year, directed by the former actress, Katia Lewkowicz. With the enchanting Paris aroma emerging in every sequence, as well as phlegmatic dialogue, inspired by the desperation a male deals with in the face of commitment, “Pourquoi Τu Pleures?” is a sweet film of diverse nuances, which spreads real smiles during its running time.
