A film to be (re)discovered on VOD for purchase on July 11 and for rental on July 24, 2024.
The premise is as hilarious as it is frightening: winning the lottery is one chance in 19 million, less likely than being hit by a meteorite. But for the characters in Happy Winners, that dream quickly turns into an explosive, hilarious nightmare. This scenario provides the perfect backdrop for exploring the themes of sudden fortune and its unexpected consequences, in a show of black comedy and thrills.
Audrey Lamy, renowned for her comedic talent and performances in films such as Tout ce qui brille and Les Invisibles, brings her charisma and energy to the role, promising unforgettable moments of laughter. Fabrice Eboué, whose varied career has taken him from stage comedy to outstanding film roles, notably in Case départ and Coexister, enriches the film with his verve and critical acumen. Anouk Grinberg, a versatile actress seen in Mon Homme or L'Innocent and several renowned theatrical projects, brings a unique depth to the ensemble.
Directed by Maxime Govare, known for his ability to blend humor and emotion in films such as Le Grand Bain and Toute première fois, and Romain Choay, this film marks a promising collaboration, playing on social dynamics and the reversals of fortune with distinctive narrative skill.
As Happy Winners prepares to capture the hearts of audiences, it's an entertaining and critical reminder that sometimes the biggest dreams can turn into chaotic and hilarious adventures, especially under the pen of such talented creators as Maxime Govare and Romain Choay. With a stellar cast and a promise of unexpected twists and turns, this film is destined to become a must-see for black comedy fans.
Our opinion on the film Heureux Gagnants:
Heureux Gagnants, is a black comedy that explores the unexpected and often dramatic consequences - at least as seen by directors Maxime Govare and Romain Choay - of winning the lottery through four interwoven stories, full of dark humor and social satire.
This film will appeal to fans of black comedy and social satire, who appreciate tales that explore the darker aspects of human nature through a humorous and critical prism. Fans of Audrey Lamy, Fabrice Eboué and Anouk Grinberg will also find something to their liking, thanks to performances in keeping with their respective talents. Viewers interested in multi-dimensional plots, where each segment reveals the ironies and paradoxes of the quest for material happiness, will undoubtedly be captivated by the narrative structure of this film in 4 tableaux.
Happy Winners should appeal for its ability to blend dark humor with deep reflection on universal issues such as happiness, morality and theimpact of suddenwealth on the individual and his or her relationships. The film offers an acerbic critique of contemporary society, while entertaining with unpredictable scenarios and breathless twists - sometimes far beyond our expectations. The main thrust of the film is that money is cursed and inevitably brings misfortune to those who touch it.
Viewers who are not fans of dark humor, or who prefer light comedy without moral ambivalence, may not appreciate Happy Winners. Similarly, those looking for straightforward linear narratives or not inclined to critical reflection on social issues may find the film less to their liking. Happy Winners delves into the complexities of human nature, starting from the basic premise that it is necessarily evil, which may not suit all audiences.
