<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\n| 2014 \u2013 97\u2032 \u2013 Comedy. Set far away from postcard Paris, Paulette is a bad-mannered comic stomp through the seedy edges of the city. Paulette is down on her luck. She might have retired in some dignity if her deceased alcoholic husband hadn\u2019t squandered the family brasserie away. Now her golden years are spent nursing welfare checks in a bare housing project apartment. This is no pity party, however, and Paulette is no pushover. When she notices that the only people doing well in the neighborhood are the marijuana dealers, she decides to get in on the act. But when the local drug lords make it clear they don\u2019t appreciate the competition, Paulette is forced to cook up another strategy. Bernadette Lafont manages the improbable feat of playing a misanthropic, xenophobic, \u201cbreaking-bad\u201d grandma who somehow manages to steal your heart.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" PAULETTE | 2014 \u2013 97\u2032 \u2013 Comedy.
