Modern Love

Modern Love is a French romantic comedy that follows the intertwined lives of several couples as they navigate the complications of dating, breaking up, and reuniting. The story centers on Eric, a director filming a musical about romance who finds his own love life far more chaotic. While involved with a woman named Anne, Eric struggles to let go of his former partner, Marie. Simultaneously, the plot explores the experiences of Elsa and Jerome, who face unexpected difficulties after meeting, as well as the relationship between Marianne and Vincent, two people with very little in common.

Directed and written by Stéphane Kazandjian, this was the first of two films listed in his directorial career. The ensemble cast features Alexandra Lamy, Stéphane Rousseau, Bérénice Bejo, Clotilde Courau, Mélanie Bernier, and Valérie Karsenti. Produced by companies including Pathé and Galatée Films, the project had a budget of 5 million USD but earned 2 million USD at the worldwide box office. Audience reception was mixed, with the film receiving a 5.3 rating on IMDb based on 357 votes and a 4.4 rating on TMDB from 15 votes.
