This is a stand-out movie, so well written and put together. 92-year-old Madeleine is leaving her Suburban home to enter an aged-care facility on the other side of Paris. Charles, a taxi driver, knows it will be a good fare and comes to pick her up. She is in no hurry to reach her new home and asks him to go via various places which have been significant in her life. As the journey goes on, she shares some of the events of her incredible life with him, as well as wisdom and that is useful for his rather jaded existence. Beautifully and perfectly cast an acted, what appeared to be a simple story becomes a complex but warm, difficult and open-hearted encounter of two very different people – one a taxi driver and the other, his elderly, enchanting fare. And from this taxi ride a tale unfolds that is quite unexpected. It’s a beautiful movie of encounters that reach deep into those spaces in the hearts and lives of people. This is truly a must watch for any lover of film wanting a meaningful Movie experience. Give it a watch!
