C'est la vie!

C'est la vie! (Le Sens de la fête, 2017) is a French comedy by Olivier Nakache and Éric Toledano you can watch online on iFILM. Over one chaotic night, a castle wedding slowly falls apart.

Max has spent decades running other people's parties and he's running on fumes. Tonight his crew caters a lavish reception in a 17th-century château, and everything that can go wrong does. Waiters revolt against their period costumes, the hired singer fancies himself a Gallic James Brown, the groom micromanages every detail, and Max's colleague Josiette openly flirts with a much younger server. Jean-Pierre Bacri plays the man holding the whole disaster together by sheer will.

From the duo behind Intouchables, the film is a pile-up of small catastrophes that stays warm even as it skewers everyone. It earned ten César nominations. Stream C'est la vie! (2017) online on iFILM.
