CGiii Comment

Totally improbable, played seriously and marvellously realised.

This will not be for everyone...but, those who can take the slightly bizarre will revel in the scatty humour that Ozon dishes out.

A continuous stream of tongue-in-cheek scenarios – making this not quite farcical but a supreme comedy of eccentric manners.

The(ir) Blurb...

The adventures of an upper-class suburban family abruptly confronted with the younger brother's discovery of his homosexuality, the elder sister's suicide attempt and sado-masochist tendencies, and the intrusion of a very free-spirited maid and her husband... And it all started with the arrival in the family of an innocent looking rat...
