Irène (Audrey Tautou) loves nice things and loves to have wealthy men pay for them. But through a set of wacky circumstances, she mistakenly woos a mild-mannered bartender thinking he's a wealthy suitor.
A supremely satisfying confection -- a French romantic comedy of the sort that ends with you standing outside the theatre with a dopey grin on your face.
Pierre Salvadori's deceptively sunny romantic comedy insinuates its point of view steadily, amidst great glamour and breeziness, only to reveal itself as a meditation on, dare we say it, capitalism.
The outcome is never much in doubt, but Salvadori artfully choreographs the endless table turning, and the Moroccan-born Elmaleh capitalizes on his striking resemblance to Buster Keaton with a similarly comic composure.
Pierre Salvadori's delightful comedy, picturesquely set in a series of posh hotels on the French Riviera, throws together two terrific comic actors and an irresistible premise.

There's no froth like French froth. And few French-froth-purveyors are as adept as Pierre Salvadori.

Priceless is a Hollywood remake waiting to happen. It's almost guaranteed.
Bittersweet comedy's perfectly chosen multigenerational cast ably demonstrates that if money can't buy love, it sure can purchase lots of obsequious service from four-star hotel staffers and costly goodies from laughably pricey boutiques.
