Priceless (12A)
BRIGHT and sunny French
romantic comedy with Amelie
and The Da Vinci Code star
Audrey Tautou as glamorous gold-digger
Irene who's put out when her latest
sugar daddy (Veronon Dobtcheff) falls
asleep during her birthday celebrations.
Wandering down to the hotel bar, she
mistakes bartender Jean (Gad Elmaleh)
for a playboy. He's happy to go along
with the pretence, getting the key to a
hotel suite so they can spend the night
there.
When Irene discovers he's penniless,
she checks out. Smitten, he follows her
to Nice where she pays him back for his
deception by accepting an invitation to
dinner - where she orders the most
expensive food and wine on the menu -
and to go shopping. Then she walks out
on him, leaving him both heartbroken
and broke.
Help comes in the form of a rich
widow (Marie-Christine Adam) who
adopts him as her toy boy gigolo and
instructs him in the art of seduction.
Priceless (Hors De Prix) is light and
fluffy, lovely to look at and easy to
watch. And not a green monster in
sight.
Stars: Audrey Tautou, Gad Elmaleh,
