Having already had his work adapted for the big screen in Jan Kounen’s 99 Francs, the best-selling novelist Frédéric Beigbeder is making his directorial feature debut with an adaptation of another of his books: Love Lasts Three Years. The film chronicles the disappointments of Marc Marronnier, who is disillusioned by everything and everyone, and can’t bear the idea of divorcing a women he no longer really loves. This classic storyline is spiced up by Beigbeder’s characteristically caustic style typified by a phrase from the novel: "The first year, you buy furniture. The second year, you move the furniture. The third year, you divide up the furniture".
Cast: Gaspard Proust, Louise Bourgoin, Joey Starr, Jonathan Lambert, Frederique Bel u.c.
Directed by: Frédéric Beigbeder
