French Exit (2020) opens Friday
I did not like the New York Film Festival closing night film FRENCH EXIT. Blame it on Donald Trump and his family, but I can’t feel anything for a rich spoiled woman whose life, goes into the shitter when the money runs out. Why should we care when she skips to France with her son and her cat (which now has her husband's spirit in it) to stay in a friends apartment and try and sort things out? These are not problems that anyone except rich people would have.
Apologies, but a rich lead character who is largely unlikable, despite efforts to show her changing over time reminded me too much the family in the White House. While I should have tried to separate politics from the film seeing the film in a week where an obnoxious rich son of a bitch spent other people's money to get treatment most people in the world can't afford, only to say that cure is available to everyone (who can afford to pay for it) put me into no frame of mind to see a similar character on screen.
This is the wrong film coming out at the wrong time.
No matter how you look at it the film is ultimately a tale of rich white privilege coming out in age where white privilege is being challenged and rich white privilege is reviled. I don't know when the programmers chose to run FRENCH EXIT, but at some point they probably should have rethought the choice...
More so since the film on its own terms the film isn't very good.
