Coup de chance

Woody Allen's new drama unfolds among the sophisticated upper class in Paris. The film follows the story of Fanny, portrayed by the fabulous Lou de Laâge, who is entangled in a web of love and infidelity with unexpected consequences. The lively and energetic performances by the actors provide this light comedy with delightful depth, and the story takes dark turns that will surprise most viewers.

The title illustrates the theme that permeates the film, namely the question of the role luck plays in life. The characters discuss fortune and luck on a philosophical level, adding a certain depth to the exciting drama. Coup de chance is Allen's fiftieth feature film, exemplifying that he is still a masterful storyteller.
