Screenplay: Laurent Cantet and Robin Campillo. Twitter Capsule:
Lacks cumulative impact of Cantet's Time Out but austere intelligence runs through it. Most potent when least plotty.
VOR:②
Unusually prickly repertoire of characters in audience-unfriendly scenario. So it does take risks, but impression isn't lasting.
