French Exit

Patrick deWitt

Twenty years after finding her dead husband and leaving for a weekend of skiing, socialite and her son sell off their possessions and flee to Paris.

What ensues is absurd, comical, and deeply dark.

It steps on the brink of beautiful tragedy but fails to commit.

Recommendation: Rent
