A good film nearly undone by one atrocious performance Va Savoir is one of those films I might have liked a lot more had it featured a different leading lady, but Jeanne Balibar's listless and affected performance - like some hyperactive simpleton doped up to the eyeballs going through their full repertoire of irritating mannerisms in extreme slow motion - sucked the life out of every scene she's in.

Va Savoir Could not disagree more with previous review. This is a film made for foreigners who think that is what French film should be like.
