About This Movie

Mersonne ne m'aime is a curious blend of comedy and crime, replete with that distinct TV movie vibe of the early '80s. The story kicks off with a feminist's murder, which sets a tone both dark and oddly humorous. The pacing has this interesting rhythm; it doesn’t rush but allows the detectives and the women aiding them to really explore their motivations and strengths. The performances have a certain earnestness, especially from the women who drive the narrative forward, and there's this underlying commentary on gender dynamics that feels relevant even today. It's not your typical whodunit; it feels more like a character study wrapped in a murder mystery. Definitely distinctive in its approach and atmosphere.

Quirky blend of genres; not a standard crime flick.Character-driven narrative that includes feminist themes.Interplay between humor and serious undertones is intriguing.
