A handsome, successful fashion photographer learns that he has a malignant brain tumor that will soon kill him. Hiding his diagnosis, he alienates his family and his young boyfriend, but during a short stay with his grandmother, his vulnerability is met with a big heart and sound advice. A chance encounter with a roadside cafe waitress results in an unusual bargain that provides a happy, playful dimension to the proceedings. (texte officiel du distributeur)

I am at a loss. I was really looking forward to seeing this (supposedly) powerful film, but , I don't know if the fault is mine, I didn't feel anything very strong or intense from it as I originally expected. Of course, the premise is interesting at first glance, but somehow not particularly fleshed out. I thought it was going to be reflective, but then I didn't think much of it. The cast is mostly good, especially Jeanne Moreau. The music suited the scenes well, and there were just those occasional camera moments that are appropriate for this type of film. I'm just saying that it's a shame about the amount of untapped potential and I was also a bit put off by the unexpected ending, but maybe in time I'll come around to it. 65%.
