After two other choices for April - The Leisure Seeker and Final Portrait - became unavailable to us because they're only showing at the Varsity Cinema, which has temporarily dropped weekday matinees because of loud construction noise nearby, we're going to see what I hope will seem like a "third time is the charm" film.
It is Madame, a goofy comedy set in France. We'll see it at the Carlton Cinema (Carlton St. half a block east of Yonge on north side) on Tuesday, April 10, for the 1:40 screening - as always, meeting near the box office about 20 minutes earlier.
SYNOPSIS: Anne and Bob (Toni Collette and Harvey Keitel), a well-to-do American couple, move into a manor house in romantic Paris. While preparing a particularly luxurious dinner for sophisticated international friends, our hostess discovers there are 13 guests. Panic-stricken, Anne insists her loyal maid Maria disguise herself as a mysterious Spanish noblewoman to even out the numbers. But a little too much wine, and some playful chat, lead Maria to accidentally endear herself to a dandy British art broker. Their budding romance will have Anne chasing her maid around Paris and finally plotting to destroy this most unexpected and joyous love affair.
