Tout pour plaire, or 35 Something as it is called abroad, is a thoroughly enjoyable flick for grrlz. It has no pretensions of being Palme d'Or material, but neither is the majority of films made in the world. This film aims merely to entertain the audience with the trials and tribulations of a trio of upper middle class Parisian women, friends since childhood. One, is the eternal bachelorette who chases men away with her scathing sarcasm, the second unhappily married and unappreciated at work and the third in a loving marriage with a good for nothing painter as husband.
The film follows the girls through a difficult time in their lives. The first has been dumped by her insecure boyfriend, the second discovers her husband is cheating and the third contemplates cheating herself with a man who is more energetic and ambitious than her lazy husband.
All's well that ends well. If you do not have too high expectations of this film, it will keep you pleasantly entertained for an hour and a half.
