Oscar winner Kevin Kline plays Mathias, a New Yorker who travels to Paris in order to liquidate a very valuable apartment that he has inherited from his late father. However, once there he finds a peculiar old woman occupying it (Oscar winner Maggie Smith) and she has more than just a bit of bad news regarding his plans to become wealthy. (Curzon Film World)

A pleasant movie that reminds me of A Good Year in many regards. Only with the difference that A Good Year’s characters were way more likeable and the locations were one grade higher; I’m not saying that Kevin Kline didn’t put on a good show or that Paris was any less charming than the French countryside. It’s all about what personalities and what places I’m personally drawn to and My Old Lady is just on a different level in this regard. On the other hand, some of Kevin Kline’s business skills make me laugh to this day.

Such a pleasant story that will leave you with quite nice feelings and faith in better relationships between people, but still, these feelings will quickly disappear and it is quite possible that you won't remember much from the movie the next day. But that first impression, those first feelings are truly quite pleasant.
