Priceless (Hors De Prix) (12A)

Oct 11 2008

WHILE all the attention was on Sex and the City in the late spring, this cracking French movie slipped out of Brum as quietly as it had arrived.

French star Audrey Tautou (The Da Vinci Code) is on delightful form as Irene, a tidy-looking, label- obsessed money-grabber who’s staying at a luxury Biarritz hotel with a sugar daddy. Shy but smartly-dressed bartender Jean (Gad Elmaleh) can only envy the rich guests until Irene mistakes him as another millionaire to pick on.

Made as long ago as 2006, Priceless is a beautifully-shot, joyous romp and should be overlooked no longer.

Also available to buy for £19.99, the extras include four deleted scenes.
