Hors de Prix a.k.a. Priceless

Priceless is a French romantic comedy film starring the lovely Audrey Tautou as a young gold-digging girl trying to seduce and get a marriage with one of the rich old men to walk away with all his wealth. However, she ends up falling in love with a waiter at the hotel pretending to be a millionaire but soon after she knows the truth, she left him. The story and the fun doesn’t end there. Indeed, it’s just the beginning of unexpected twist and turn of the story when the waiter follows her and helplessly adopts her gold-digging lifestyle. As time goes by, they are getting closer.

Audrey Tautou is charmingly brilliant in this film. It’s the first time she agreed to look sexy on screen with (and without) those lovely dresses. The ensemble of the cast also delivers fine performance. The script and story is a breakaway from typical Hollywood movie and that would definitely please those who fed up with the same old storyline. The plot is funny and clever.
All in all, this is an enjoyable romantic comedy movie. If you love Audrey Tautou, you should not miss this film. The entertainment you get is certainly priceless.
4 Stars out of 5 – recommend to everyone who wants to get away from American cinema. This French movie is worth a try.

Bedtime stories

How is it that it's been just three days since my vacation and already I am feel sleep deprived? Clearly, I have a problem. Clearly, this problem is serious since it was not remedied by a whole week of sleeping in until past 11 a.m. Though, thinking about this issue in the wee small hours of the morning, I realized that perhaps my problem is simply motivation. Because, well, if any of these women were in my bed I'd have no problem crawling under the covers. Of course, whether we'd sleep or not is entirely another matter. Hmm, perhaps this is the wrong kind of motivation after all. Wrong but delicious. Famke Janssen Audrey Tautou Angelina Jolie
