It Boy

It Boy (20 Ans d'écart, 2013) is a French romantic comedy directed by David Moreau — watch online on iFILM. Virginie Efira plays Alice, a sharp-edged editor at a glossy fashion magazine with a perfect CV and a reputation for running cold. Management drops a hint: the new youth title needs someone with a little scandal attached.

Enter twenty-year-old Balthazar, played by Pierre Niney. A ridiculous mix-up sends a rumour flying through the entertainment circuit that Alice is dating him, and suddenly the smudged image she never wanted becomes her fastest route to the top. She decides to play along. He doesn't realise he's the prop.

Produced by EuropaCorp and TF1 Films Production, the film runs 92 minutes and coasts on the genuine spark between its two leads. Stream It Boy (2013) online on iFILM.
