Happenstance Movie Review 2000

Is it fate? destiny? chance? that brings people together? Clerk Irene (Tautou) chats with a woman on the subway who tells her that she will meet her true love that day. He turns out to be Faudel (Younes) but of course the made-for-each-other duo's actually getting together is a maze of complications. Amusing romantic comedy; French with subtitles.
