My Old Lady

Mathias Gold (Kevin Kline) is really a down-on-his-luck New Yorker who uttered a Parisian flat out of his estranged dad. However, if he arrives in France to offer the huge domicile, he is shocked to find that a stay-at-home renter who isn’t ready to budge. His flat is an viager – an early French realestate system with all complex rules related to its resale value – and also the feisty Englishwoman Mathilde Girard (Maggie Smith), who’s lived at the flat with her daughter Chloé (Kristin Scott Thomas) for all decades, could contract collect regular premiums by Mathias before her departure.
