Review

Marc and Beatrix and their teenage children Laura and Charly shack up in a rustic house by the Mediterranean’s Cote D’azur. The seaside air seems to have a hormonal effect on the family and a few of their visitors: the shower becomes a masturbation chamber, while Charly and his equally adorable pal – or could it be boyfriend? – Martin seem to be up to something. When not pondering her son’s sexuality, Beatrix sneaks out for her own lusty rendezvous with a secret lover, Mattheiu. And as for poor Marc? Well, he’s got a naughty secret of his own. Add a hunky plumber, a cruising trail, and lots of aphrodisiac-loaded mollusks and you’ve got a summer to remember.

From lovers/director/writers Jacques Martineau and Olivier Ducastel (The Adventures of Felix) comes this truly delicious screwball comedy with a couple of musical numbers thrown in for good measure. Believe us, you’ll never think of family “outings” the same way again! (French with English subtitles)

Fun but Kind of Fishy too

Steve wrote on 03/24/2006:

So by the middle of this movie I had been expecting certain pairings to happen and yet by the end not a single one of my expectations occured. So needless to say, what I wanted/hoped for did not happen. But also the ending seemed a bit silly. I don't mind the folly of a musical when I'm watching a musical but the last scenes broke my suspension of disbelief and enjoyment.

Saw this at the Dublin Gay & Lesbian Film Festival in August 2005, under the title "Cockles & Muscles". Very funny. If you haven't been to the South of France already, this will make you want to pack your bags and go!
