A Friendly Tale...

A Friendly Tale (Le bonheur des uns..., 2020) is a French comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Léa and Marc have known Francis and Karine forever, long enough that everyone has settled into a fixed role.

Then quiet, unassuming Léa writes a novel, and it becomes an overnight bestseller. The group is supposed to celebrate. Instead, envy creeps in. Bérénice Bejo plays the accidental literary star, Vincent Cassel her husband whose ego takes the worst hit, with Florence Foresti and François Damiens completing a foursome where every compliment hides a needle. Director Daniel Cohen turns one friend's good luck into a sharp little stress test for the other three — funny until you spot yourself in it. Stream A Friendly Tale (2020) online on iFILM.
