Fifty-year-old waitress Aurore (Agnès Jaoui) discovers how right she was in I Got Life!, an endearing and warm-hearted French charmer.
Aurore is single and about to become a grandmother and she feels she might as well be invisible as far as the world is concerned.
Her boss can’t remember her name and even automatic doors fail to react as she approaches them.
Is the future just a desert of loneliness, neglect and physical decline?
Should she just shrug and accept it, or rage against the dying of the light?
Her bittersweet acceptance that she will never be 21 again is handled with gentle wit and understanding by director Blandine Lenoir and a radiant Jaoui shines as a woman who refuses to be thrown on the scrapheap of life just yet.
