Monsieur (1990) is an intriguing blend of adventure, comedy, and drama. It follows this polite young guy, Monsieur, who's not just a ping-pong whiz but also kind of a misfit living with his fiancée's parents. The pacing has this nice ebb and flow, and the atmosphere is both whimsical and a bit melancholic. What really stands out is how he navigates this quirky world, especially with a neighbor who's always lurking, creating this tension. The performances feel genuine, capturing the essence of someone torn between love and escape. It's the kind of film that doesn't rush, instead, it lets you soak in every moment while exploring themes of connection and isolation. Quite distinctive, really.
The film offers a unique take on love and isolation. · Features charming practical effects during ping-pong scenes. · Notable performances bring depth to an otherwise whimsical script.
