The 2015 French comedy Lolo, directed by and starring Julie Delpy, is a sharp, satirical look at the chaotic intersection of midlife romance and the nightmare of overbearing children. While it presents itself as a breezy romantic comedy, it quickly veers into a "maternal thriller" territory that explores the dark humor of family sabotage.
Recommending the requires a caveat. If you are looking for a pleasant, low-stakes romantic comedy to watch on a rainy Sunday afternoon, Lolo will ruin your day. It is a film that makes you squirm.
