Ménage à trois

About This Movie

Ménage à trois is an intriguing little comedy that plays with the complexities of relationships in a rather chaotic setup. You’ve got Hortense, a painter caught in her husband’s dismissive view of her art. Then there’s Philippe, the anthropologist who prioritizes his pet mammoths over his own wife, which is a bizarre but fun twist. Max, the outsider, brings a certain intensity to the mix as he grapples with his frustrations about the couple. The pacing is breezy, allowing for those awkward, humorous moments to breathe. The performances, while not from big names, have this raw quality that adds to the film's charm. It’s distinctive in how it juggles comedy with a hint of absurdity, which can leave you pondering the nature of relationships long after the credits roll.
