The Names of Love (Le Nom des gens)

“Every romantic comedy worth its salt needs to make the audience fall in love, and here The Names of Love succeeds triumphantly. Forestier captivates with her lively eyes, her knotted bursts of energy, and — it is worth mentioning again — her careless, constant, knee-buckling nudity. She is so infatuating that she nearly makes you forget how insufferable her real-life equivalent would likely be.”
