Ricky
"From celebrated French director Francois Ozon (UNDER THE SAND, 8 WOMEN) comes RICKY, a hilarious genre-hybrid film about family. When Katie, an ordinary woman, meets Paco, an ordinary man, something magical and miraculous happens: they fall in love. Out of their love comes an extraordinary baby: Ricky. “Perhaps Mr. Ozon’s strangest exploration yet of the meaning of family. Set in a working-class milieu that brings to mind social-realist filmmakers like Ken Loach or Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne, the movie leaps into the fairy tale ether with an outlandish twist that Mr. Ozon plays with a straight face” –Lim, NY Times “a marvelously bizarre tale… so rich and tender-hearted it’s almost angelic” -Dermody, Paper “in this season of self-important filmmaking, it’s nice to watch a movie that entertains while refusing to take itself too seriously” -Musetto, NY Post
