French Movie: The Valet

I recently made a trip to the library to stock up on movies. It's always an adventure to see what DVDs are scattered on the shelf. Sometimes I come away with empty hands, but other days I find an interesting array of films.

My surprise-find this time was The Valet, a cute movie based in France. The storyline is sad in that it is based around a scandalous divorce, but the presentation of the subject is lighthearted and sweet in that the tale focuses on a unique relationship that develops between a young, slightly nerdy valet and a famous supermodel. The overall essence of the movie is hopeful and sweet despite the dark situation of relationship troubles that create the background to the focal aspects of this story.
