Comédie-Française wunderkind Guillaume Gallienne writes, stars in and directs this huge French huge hit comedy based on a successful stage show of the same name. A crowd-pleaser embracing issues of family friction and confused sexuality (not to mention love-hate relationships with mothers), this was a huge success at the French box office, grossing €45m. As a child Guillaume discovers his passion to become an actor, and his diligence and pursuit of his craft leads everyone around him to label him as clearly gay – except for Guillaume himself, which allows for a wonderful twist as the film bounces towards its dénouement. Film also features a brilliantly funny turn from German star, Diane Kruger.
