Mastrioanni is surrounded by a delightful cast of somewhat unexpected characters, beautifully brought to life by the likes of Camille Cottin (&#8220;CALL MY AGENT&#8221;), Vincent Lacoste, and a wonderfully wise Carole Bouquet. The plot is triggered by a sudden marital crisis (and quite a bit of genre-appropriate bed-hopping), and takes place over the course of one life-changing night in Paris. Yet, under its frothy surface, the film is actually a kind of deconstructed love story, in which the dreams of youth are held in sharp contrast to the world-weariness of middle age. But maybe the key to happiness lies somewhere in between\u2026 As Barry Manilow ponders, \u201cCould this be the magic, at last?\u201d<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/strandreleasing.com\/films\/on-a-magical-night\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH NOW<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ON A MAGICAL NIGHT | 2020 &#8211; 107&#8242; &#8211;\u00a0\u00a0Romance \/ Comedy \/ Fantasy\u00a0 &#8211; Written and Directed by\u00a0Christophe Honor\u00e9.
