With over 86 speaking parts, Bruno Podalyd├иs has assembled an all-star, ensemble cast including Catherine Deneuve, Mathieu Amalric, and Chiara Mastroianni in this film about the everyday lives of Parisians living in the wealthy suburb of Versailles. Park Benches is a witty, incisive examination of contemporary France and urban alienation that was a huge success on its theatrical release in France. The film is the final entry in Podalyd├иs' "Versailles Trilogy," which also includes A Night in Versailles and Only God Sees Me. Denis Podalyd├иs plays the protagonist in all three films, but each stands on its own and can be seen without being familiar with the others.
