About this movie

Academy Award winners Kevin Kline and Maggie Smith and Academy Award nominee Kristin Scott Thomas star in this witty and heartfelt drama about surprising inheritances and unexpected connections. When Mathias Gold (Kline) arrives at the sumptuous Parisian apartment he inherited from his father, he's surprised that the property comes with two stubborn live-in tenants who are not required to leave according to an ancient French real estate law. Unable to sell the place, Mathias moves in with the feisty Englishwoman, Mathilde (Maggie Smith), and her daughter, Chloé (Kristin Scott Thomas). But as Mathias and Chloé draw increasingly closer, Mathilde unveils a complex labyrinth of secrets that unites the trio in unexpected ways. (Original Title - My Old Lady) - 2014 Universal Studios.

This movie is embued with charm by its setting and impressive (as expected) performances and crisply made. No scene feels unneeded or that it lasts longer than necessary. You don't know where it's going at first, but then it takes a sharp, sharp turn. There's the conflict — and the trailer doesn't give it away at all. If you are looking for lighthearted fare, this isn't the movie for you (or perhaps it's just not the movie for this evening). But if you want something that makes you think and that makes you feel, this movie is just about ideal.
