To call it understated is its own special sort of\u00a0understatement; this is a film-as-character-study, but also one that hovers drone-like over its subject rather than digging in for deep psychological insights.<\/p>\n<p>The story centers on a lawyer and family man, Paul Exben (Duris), who commutes from outside the city to the Paris-based corporate firm he co-founded with his partner and mentor, Anne Damaso (Catherine Deneuve). Behind this deceptively simple and manicured bourgeois fa\u00e7ade, however, lies desire for creative fulfillment on the part of both Paul and his weary wife, Sarah (Marina Fois).<\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;s a would-be writer ground down by rejection and domestic duty, and Paul is an amateur photographer who never took a chance on his own talents in that field. These distant echoes of dissatisfaction cause a rift in their marriage, and Paul begins to suspect Sarah of having an affair with their rakish photojournalist neighbor, Greg (Eric Ruf). Confrontation ensues, and while what transpires after this (roughly the first act break) is perhaps\u00a0best not communicated with exacting\u00a0detail, it separates Paul from Sarah and his two young children, and sets him off on a course of self-discovery and reinvention whereby he gets a second chance at becoming a photographer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rapt&#8221; was another recent French film that focused on a successful lawyer who finds his well-ordered world suddenly compromised, but &#8220;The Big Picture&#8221; is much more of a piece with something like Michelangelo Antonioni&#8217;s &#8220;The Passenger,&#8221; which also dealt with re-christened identity. Its rhythms are, if not sleepy, then at least deeper and slower than what one might assume based on how the narrative unfolds &#8212; a night current rather than a furious rapid.<\/p>\n<p>Director Eric Lartigau, working from an adaptation\u00a0co-authored with Laurent de Bartillat, focuses on internal struggle as much as anything else. The movie&#8217;s moral ambivalence and embrace of ambiguity is its most attractive quality; in resisting easy answers for\u00a0what might be described as a series of increasingly poor\u00a0choices Paul makes, it spotlights the sliding scale of ethical principle that most movies seek to avoid. In this regard, what will endear &#8220;The Big Picture&#8221; to audiences more familiar with foreign films are the very traits that will frustrate those who find its plotting too sludgy, and lacking in catharsis.<\/p>\n<p>Deneuve&#8217;s presence &#8212; both\u00a0the legendary actress, and the character she plays &#8212; is a bit of a puzzler, but Neils Arestrup and Branka Katic both deliver fine supporting work as folks who cross paths with Paul in his newly compromised and secretive state. Ruf plays a character who, as written, is a bit too much of a telegraphed catalyst, but Fois is subtly distended with discontent. Mainly, though, &#8220;The Big Picture&#8221; is about Duris, who delivers a fine performance that builds on the burgeoning reputation he&#8217;s built with Stateside arthouse audiences by way of &#8220;The Beat That My Heart Skipped&#8221; and &#8220;Heartbreaker.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical: C+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Acting: B+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Story:
