Tough Luck

About This Movie

So, 'Tough Luck' is this quirky blend of comedy and drama that really plays with the lines between reality and imagination. You have Réjean, portrayed by Rémy Girard, who's a biographer by trade, but not just any biographer—he's the kind that spruces up his clients' lives, almost like a magician. The film dives into this peculiar world of online dating, particularly on Réseau Contact, where he faces his own fabrications. It’s got this raw, intimate atmosphere, and the pacing ebbs and flows in a way that kind of mirrors his internal struggles. The performances are quite engaging, especially how Girard captures that uncertainty and charm. It’s interesting how it touches on themes of identity and self-perception without being overly heavy-handed.

Unique portrayal of online dating.Interesting take on fictionalized biographies.Rémy Girard delivers a notable performance.
