We Will All Meet in Paradise

About This Movie

We Will All Meet in Paradise is one of those quirky comedies from the late 70s that has a certain charm. The film revolves around Étienne Dorsay, who, after spotting a photo of his partner Marthe with an unknown figure, spirals into a comical jealousy-fueled odyssey. The pacing has a leisurely feel, which suits the weekend house escapade perfectly. The performances are a mixed bag, but there’s a genuine warmth to them, creating an oddly inviting atmosphere. Notably, the film explores themes of love and insecurity through humor, which gives it a different flavor compared to mainstream comedies at the time. Something about the practical effects and simple setups adds to its quirky appeal.

This film has seen limited release on physical media, making it somewhat scarce in collector circles. Occasionally, you might find it in obscure compilations or as a part of niche label releases. Interest tends to spike among those who appreciate offbeat comedies from the 1970s, and it often sparks conversations about the era’s unique storytelling styles.
