François Mitterrand & Anne Pingeot: Pieces of a Love Story (2021)
In the summer of 1963, François Mitterrand was going through a deep existential crisis. His political career was at a standstill and, after 19 years of marriage, the couple had grown apart. It was at this point that François Mitterrand met the woman who was to give new meaning to his life. Anne Pingeot, aged 19, was to become the companion of a lifetime, a woman who would be with him throughout his rise to power and who would remain by his side until his last breath. For the first time, Anne Pingeot has agreed to allow the fragments of this passionate love story — hundreds of letters and a diary — to be shown on television, before being donated to the National Library.

Too many fans seem to be blown away
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
