- Synopsis:
- In the twilight of his life, Jean-Baptiste, a painter who has always lived in Paris, says he wants to be buried in Limoges: 'Those who love me can take the train'. So begins a sad, wild, and marvellous journey which unites all the people that he had touched during his lifetime - his lovers, lovers' lovers, ex lover's new wives, old friends, casual acquaintances, and relatives. But their shared mourning cannot conceal the heartbreaks, rivalries, jealousies and passion which all simmer to the surface and will - over the course of the journey, funeral and wake - reach some kind of resolution.

La vie c’est une kitcheree - Those Who Love Me Can Take the Train review by CH
If you can stay with this film you may glean a moment or two of enlightenment ( or even empathy) but mostly you will be in a brume of bewilderment trying to follow this savage family dispute, without ever really knowing the details of who, what, where, when and how (and frankly not caring a jot.) Expect lots of slamming doors, withering looks, spat syllables, punched noses and drama queenery.

Those who love me can take the train - Those Who Love Me Can Take the Train review by CP Customer
Some good performances, but not much story and we didn't expect an oh-so-nearly gay encounter in a 15.

A train, a funeral, gay times and transvestism...pure class...and in French too!
