Movie: I Want to Go Home (1989)
Film Synopsis:
Joey Wellman, an American cartoonist from Cleveland now largely forgotten at home, visits France with his partner Lena to attend an exhibition in Paris about comic strips (Bande Dessinee) who displays her work. He also hopes to be reconciled with his daughter Elsie who has been a student in Paris for two years, in a flight from American culture of which he sees her father as a typical example. Elsie is infatuated with French literature, and attempts to secure an introduction to the brilliant university professor Christian Gauthier, an expert on Flaubert but also a fan of comic books. The father and daughter meeting goes poorly, but Elsie is persuaded to join Joey and Lena for a weekend at the home of Gauthiers first lady, Isabelle. During a comic-themed masquerade ball, all the characters are made to reconsider their present and past relationships. Uploaded by: Freeman April 19, 2020 at 10:18 am
