Times Have Been Better

About This Movie

So, 'Times Have Been Better' is this quirky comedy from 2006 that dives into family dynamics with a twist. You've got Jérémy, a banker in his thirties, who thinks it's time to come out to his parents. The parents, Guy and Rosine, they see themselves as pretty open-minded, but man, their reactions are both hilarious and cringeworthy. The film balances awkward humor with some earnest moments, capturing that bizarre blend of love and misunderstanding that often comes with family. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but it lends itself to the chaos of the story. And while the performances aren't exactly Oscar material, they have a genuine charm that pulls you in. It's that kind of film that stays with you in a way, you know?
