Synopsis
Five old friends, one woman, one rock star: Mes meilleurs copains (My Best Pals, 1989) is a French comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jean-Marie Poiré.
Back in the day they survived May '68 together, drifted through the hippie years, played in a band, and all fell for the same Bernadette. She ditched the group for the stage and became a rock star. Fifteen years on she returns for a single weekend, and the reunion drags every old grudge, secret and unpaid favor back into the room. Gérard Lanvin, Christian Clavier, Jean-Pierre Bacri and Jean-Pierre Darroussin lead the ensemble.
Poiré paints a generation that grew up alongside postwar France, half-fond and half-bruised about how far everyone wandered from their old ideals. The cast keeps things loose and funny even when the jokes turn rueful, and the weekend slowly exposes who really stayed loyal to whom. Stream Mes meilleurs copains (1989) online on iFILM.
