Quote:
"The film [La quarantaine] is carried out entirely by conversation, which ranges over the amusing and the dramatic; yet movement and change is always evident, with the whole skillfully held together by the marvellous ensemble acting, the direction, and the very real expression of feelings and emotions."
-- Gerald Pratley
