Prioritize:
A complete mess. That is the feeling I had after watching the movie. Jean Gabin plays that kind of boss that’s just sitting around. Everything is happening around him, and everything somehow goes past me as well. It’s a French movie with the typical French traits, but it lacks stronger characters and a more balanced story. ()
