Mathias, la cinquantaine, new-yorkais, divorcé et sans ressources, débarque à Paris pour vendre la maison qu'il a héritée de son père. Il découvre alors que ce magnifique hôtel particulier du Marais est habité par une vieille dame de 92 ans, Mathilde, et sa fille, Chloé. Un hôtel particulier que Mathilde a placé il y a bien longtemps en viager, coutume typiquement française que ne comprend évidemment pas cet Américain pragmatique, qui, non seulement ne peut plus vendre son héritage, mais se retrouve en plus à devoir payer une rente.

A pleasant movie that reminds me of A Good Year in many regards. Only with the difference that A Good Year’s characters were way more likeable and the locations were one grade higher; I’m not saying that Kevin Kline didn’t put on a good show or that Paris was any less charming than the French countryside. It’s all about what personalities and what places I’m personally drawn to and My Old Lady is just on a different level in this regard. On the other hand, some of Kevin Kline’s business skills make me laugh to this day.

Such a pleasant story that will leave you with quite nice feelings and faith in better relationships between people, but still, these feelings will quickly disappear and it is quite possible that you won't remember much from the movie the next day. But that first impression, those first feelings are truly quite pleasant.
