Chicago International Film Festival: Honey, I'm in Love/ Le Grand Départ October 18, 2008

Directed by Claude Meunier

Can one throw away the past and fall in love after 40? The opening question of this contemporary tale of family and romance may sound droll, but whimsy only decorates a deeply ironic inquiry into the conventions against which we struggle in our desire for happiness. A philandering father, a suicidal daughter, a detached son, and a socially conscious mother are the atoms of this truly atomic nuclear family—and each has a finger on the button. 100 min.

French with English subtitles.
