Les chansons d’amour/ Love songs Director: Christophe Honoré 2007, 100 min Friday, 18th November 2011 5.30 pm & 7.30 pm Julie's boyfriend Ismaël lives with her; rather than worry about the time he spends with his colleague Alice; Julie invites Alice to join them. The three walk the streets of Paris, party, read, and sleep together. Sometimes it's light-hearted, sometimes there are jealousies. Then death strikes. In various ways, those left come to terms with the departure and absence of a loved one: showing concern, eating together, attempting new relationships, trying to "be there" for the other. Then, the spirit returns and new commitments are possible. The romantic elements of musical comedy play in contrast to the ambivalence of the lyrics and the story.
