Feat. Mercedes Ruehl, Jean Reno

Aroview: Terminally-ill Mercedes Ruehl's dying wish is to be buried in the local cemetary, but the plots are filling up fast, thus sending off her devoted, salty husband (Jean Reno) on a frantic quest to become the village 'life-saver'. Lovingly-made black comedy with more than a dash of Italian romanticism. In English, though.
