How to be a Good Wife
Oscar winner Juliette Binoche (The English Patient) leads this French comedy as a recent widow who takes over her and her late husband's housekeeping school, only to discover it's close to bankruptcy. Though it's a rough position to be in, it presents an opportunity to transform the training grounds for subservient housewives into an establishment that challenges social norms.
