Little White Lies is a drama / comedy that ultimately falls into a melodramatic stupor. It's better than it isn't, but the run time of 154 minutes pushes the boundaries between epic drama and overlong mess. When Ludo (Jean Dujardin) is grievously injured in a car accident, his group of friends find themselves at a loss. They decide to leave on their annual vacation to a lakehouse owned by Max (Francois Cluzet), to gather their bearings and wait for Ludo's recovery. Mario (Marion Cotillard) is a rebellious young woman with many problems, and a relationship for each one. Vincent (Benoit Magimel) is a married man who, before leaving on the trip, confesses his unrequited love to best-friend Max. This confession causes a rift between the two of them for the vacation. Antoine (Lauren Lafitte) and Eric(Gilles Lellouche) are two love-sick puppies with hearts stuck in Paris. Most of "Little White Lies" takes place at the vacation house, where tensions between the characters boil over amid happy days of boating and wine.
