One to see, ifif you enjoy the sharp, rhythmic wit of theatrical comedies and champagne-soaked social unraveling.

A witty, high-society romp that relies on sharp dialogue, mounting intoxication, and the complications of past flings. It is a theatrical and charming comedy of manners for those who enjoy watching upper-class composure slowly unravel.

What it is about

Two upper-class wives, their husbands away for the day, share a few toasts to their pre-marital dalliances—with the same man, who just may be en route from France to visit. Old rivalries and past scandals bubble to the surface in this intoxicating romp from one of theatre’s comedy masters.

Trailer

What Fallen Angels is like, and who it is for

What it is like to watch

Expect a brisk, stagey energy where the dialogue does all the heavy lifting. The film relies on a confined setting and the escalating tipsiness of its leads, creating a sense of pent-up anticipation and comic dread. It feels light, verbal, and increasingly chaotic as the poise of high society begins to crack under the influence of both gin and jealousy.

Who it is for, and who should skip it

This is a treat for fans of sophisticated banter and those who appreciate Rose Byrne's knack for expressive physical comedy. It is less suited to those who require a fast-paced plot or varied locations; the theatrical roots are likely to be very apparent throughout. One honest caveat is that the humour relies heavily on the specific neuroses of a privileged class, which may feel slightly slight to some.

The right evening for it

It is the perfect choice for a lighthearted evening with a drink in hand, especially if you prefer verbal sparring over broad slapstick.
