Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This is the direct sequel to Laroque and Palmade's 1996 hit 'Ils s'aiment...' — the same couple, fifteen years later, now with the mortgage and resentments to match.
Released when French divorce rates peaked, it captures a generation realizing 'till death do us part' was negotiable — and the comedy in that particular grief.
