About This Movie

So, 'Beauties at War' is an interesting one. Directed by Patrice Leconte, it has this quirky comedic tone that feels like a lighthearted blend of absurdity and charm. Set against the backdrop of a picturesque ski resort town, the movie dives into the rivalry between local businesses aiming to attract tourists. The pacing kind of meanders, allowing for moments of reflection amidst the humor. The performances have a certain warmth; they really tap into the quirky dynamics of small-town life. What stands out to me are the practical effects used in some of the slapstick moments—there's a tangible quality to the humor. Overall, it’s a whimsical take on competition and community, wrapped in a comedic package that’s pretty distinctive in its execution.
