Service Entrance
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2011
March 2 - 12, 2011
A stockbroker (marvelous Fabrice Luchini) lives a peaceful, boring existence in 1960s Paris with his socialite wife (Sandrine Kiberlain)—until some exuberant Spanish maids move in upstairs. With Carmen Maura and Lola Dueñas.
In this splendid comedy from director Philippe Le Guay (whose Three By Eight was one of the revelations of Rendezvous 2001), stockbroker Jean-Louis Joubert (the always marvelous Fabrice Luchini) lives a peaceful yet boring bourgeois existence with his socialite wife (Sandrine Kiberlain) in 1960s Paris. But when a flock of exuberant Spanish maids moves into the sixth floor servants quarters, Jean-Louis’ world is turned upside down, particularly by beautiful Maria (Natalia Verbeke), whose irrepressible passion for life threatens to shake Jean-Louis from his staid foundation. Featuring strong support from veteran Almodóvar muses Carmen Maura and Lola Dueñas, Service Entrance is, in any language, a big-hearted delight.
