Slow Pulse

Warning: Spoilers
This is clearly aimed at the art house audience rather than the Multiplexes though there are those among the popcorn pillocks who may well appreciate the brilliant interplay between Michael Lonsdale and Mattieu Alamric as CEO and in-house psychologist respectively of a large German corporation in France. Ostensibly Alamric is asked to cosy up to Lonsdale in an effort to ascertain if his mental state to give the Board pause but of course what on the surface is straightforward turns out to be much more complex with the task 'getting' to Alamric and invading his personal life. The acting throughout is uniformly excellent with the two leads beyond excellence and it's good to see Edith Scob back on screen. Will reward the patient viewer.
