Dir. Louis Garrel, France, 2023, 99 mins, subtitled. Cast. Louis Garrel, Noemie Merlant, Anouk Grinberg.
Abel, a museum educator and widower is at his wits’ end when his mother Sylvie marries Michel, a convict she met while teaching drama at the local prison. Caught up with his suspicions of his new stepfather, he remains blissfully unaware of his developing feelings for Clémence, a vivacious Noémie Merlant. Fizzing with a cracking chemistry, and a banter à la française, The Innocent is part family farce, part heist thriller but above all a heart-warming romantic entertainer.
