One Christmas Eve, a carefree young man, Eric, arrives in a small provincial town. Here, he meets Julien, a bar pianist who is his exact double. Julien is in love with Marinette, a pretty waitress, but he is too shy to make any romantic overtures. Eric decides to give the course of true love a helping hand by pretending to be Julien. Meanwhile, Eric’s fabulously wealthy uncle has sent his minions out to bring him back home, so that he may celebrate Christmas in the bosom of his family.

Viewing Notes
Movie #6 of Justin’s Holiday Mind Melter
During the intro Justin said he was surprised this movie wasn’t more well known by this famous director. Answer: It’s because it’s not that good.
I give a bump for the pleasing fake Christmas sets and snow. Very nice looking movie that didn’t do much for me.
