Anecdotes
Nathalie Ribout, the initial script by Philippe Blasband, was published as a play in 2003 and made it to the stage in Paris in 2009 at the Théâtre Marigny with Virginie Efira as Nathalie and Maruschka Detmers as the wife. The play isn't considered to be an adaptation of the film, but more of a variation on the same idea, as Blasband's original screenplay was significantly reworked for the film, with the couple in Blasband's script being separated and in the midst of divorce proceedings, in addition to being named Sonia and Jean-Luc instead of Catherine and Bernard.

Studies of marriage and friendship

I think "Nathalie..." is a very interesting film. Once again French moviemakers confirm they're among the best European and (to me) World directors. Because they're also able to show a simple story, a simple tale where there's room for feelings and sensations.

A woman discovers she's betrayed by her husband. She hires a prostitute to follow constantly and to seduce him. The wife wants always to be told what has happened (she also wants to know exactly the way the girl has had sex with the man). But between the two women a friendship grows and also in the marriage something changes... Thanks to the young girl the married couple will find again the dialogue. Without being melodramatic, the film has an original approach for telling a story about couple problems and human relationships. "Nathalie..." contains studies about that.

A movie directed by Anne Fontaine and led by a wonderful cast: Depardieu, Ardant and Béart (these are two of the most gorgeous women of French cinema...).
