A black comedy, done right
"Harry un ami qui veut du bien," or "With a Friend Like Harry" (France 2000), is a subtle and dark look at obsessive-weirdo Harry Ballestero and his relationship with old schoolmate Michael. It's "Cable Guy" meets the "Vanishing," but way more intense and restrained than the former. I have to give the French credit on this one, as this film's revealed a humor to me that I didn't quite think they had in them. Bravo, bravo!

"I have to give the French credit on this one"
