Men's heart - Le coeur des hommes

Country France 2003

Picture and details imdb
Seen 3 June 2006

Engrossing in some parts. A film on four men in their 50's. Alex sleeps around but swears profusely to his wife that he is ever faithful to her and the family. Manuel finds a new love after the death of his father. Antoine has a twenty something girlfriend who has given him a new take on life. Jeff has just found out that his wife has cheated on him.
The four are the best of friends. Usually they will not interfere with the others' private lives save for a few tangential jokes. Sometimes one of them crosses the line and there is a shift in the status quo. They try to help each other but in the end the individual himself has to decide the best course of action.
