Movie Reviews of He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not
Movie Review: The perfect film for Valentine's Day
Summary: 5 Stars
HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT opened on Valentine's Day. It's the product of a twisted sense of humor. My wife and I loved it.Audrey Tatou, the effervescent and funny-faced do-gooder of AMELIE, plays Angelique, a talented French art student in the throes of an affair with eminent cardiologist Loïc (Samuel Le Bihan), who's two-timing his pregnant wife Rachel (Isabelle Carre). The film's very first scene shows Angelique amidst the blooms in a flower shop picking out the single, perfect rose for her beloved. (Hold this image!) Angelique dreams of having Loïc for herself, but feels threatened by Rachel's pregnancy. Then, in short order, Rachel miscarries after being accidently struck by a motor scooter, and then has a serious falling out with her husband. Angelique is elated, and readies herself for a getaway to Florence with newly unencumbered lover. But, after Loïc stands her up at the airport, Angelique wallows in the wrath of a woman scorned. Then, one of Loïc's female patient's charges him with assault. Fiercely possessive even now, Angelique takes drastic action. However, after Rachel, a lawyer, comes to her estranged husband's aid, Angelique realizes that she's lost him forever and commits suicide by gassing herself with the kitchen oven.
Have I spoiled the plot? Ah, think again! As Angelique's EKG flatlines, the movie literally fast reverses to the opening scene at the florist and another story begins.
Ms. Tatou again shows herself as the worthy successor to the delightful Audrey Hepburn. But if you're a male who, like me, wanted to take her AMELIE character home to meet Mom, perhaps you should rethink. And Le Bihan is excellent as the heartless cad. Or is he? (A cad, that is.)
Not since Nicole Kidman's THE OTHERS (2001) have I seen such a fiendishly clever use of misdirection and altered perspective. HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME NOT is a deliciously wicked black comedy. And you'd be surprised how prescription drugs can be utilized as an artist's medium. I cannot recommend this startling film too highly. Don't wait until next Valentine's Day to see it.
