Mathias Gold is a down-on-his-luck New Yorker who inherits a Parisian apartment from his estranged father. But when he arrives in France to sell the vast domicile, he's shocked to discover a live-in tenant who is not prepared to budge. His apartment is a viager—an ancient French real estate system with complex rules pertaining to its resale—and the feisty Englishwoman Mathilde Girard, who has lived in the apartment with her daughter Chloé for many years, can by contract collect monthly payments from Mathias until her death.
My Old Lady is a Romance, Comedy, Drama film released in 2014.

Movie Dialogue Sample
00:34:51,457 --> 00:34:54,758
<i>Bravo. Brava.</i> And what are you
reading, Jean-Christophe?
517
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,261
I'm reading <i> Ulysse</i>
by James Joyce.
518
00:34:58,263 --> 00:35:01,031
Oh.
But it's <i> Ulysses.</i>
519
00:35:02,533 --> 00:35:04,034
<i>Ulysses.</i>
520
00:35:04,036 --> 00:35:06,369
<i>Ulysses.</i>
521
00:35:06,371 --> 00:35:10,640
- Can you?
- <i> Ulysses.</i>
522
00:35:10,642 --> 00:35:13,910
<i>Ulysses.</i>
Such difficult language.
523
00:35:13,912 --> 00:35:18,215
But well worth the struggle.
524
00:35:18,217 --> 00:35:19,416
Yes, Florence?
525
00:35:19,418 --> 00:35:22,385
What is the meaning
of the word "wang"?
526
00:35:23,588 --> 00:35:24,988
"Wang?"
527
00:35:24,990 --> 00:35:26,490
Well, it's, um...
528
00:35:26,492 --> 00:35:30,160
it's an Oriental dynasty.
529
00:35:30,162 --> 00:35:31,895
Why?
What are you reading?
530
00:35:31,897 --> 00:35:37,234
A <i> roman </i> by a young disciple
of Philip Roth... Philip Roth.
531
00:35:37,236 --> 00:35:40,170
Well, what is the context?
532
00:35:40,905 --> 00:35:43,406
"His blood-filled wang...
533
00:35:43,408 --> 00:35:45,675
was in her 'mouse'...
534
00:35:45,677 --> 00:35:49,346
when the tea-kettle whistle
whistled."
535
00:35:49,348 --> 00:35:52,449
Ah.
<i>C'est du porno.</i>
536
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,287
Oh.
<i>C'est du porno.</i>
537
00:35:57,289 --> 00:35:59,589
Also, Florence...
"Mouth."
538
00:35:59,591 --> 00:36:02,159
"Mouth."
539
00:36:02,161 --> 00:36:03,660
"Mouse."
540
00:36:03,662 --> 00:36:05,695
"Mouse" is a little thing.
541
00:36:05,697 --> 00:36:09,099
"In her mouth."
542
00:36:09,101 --> 00:36:11,134
"In her mouth"?
Yes.
543
00:36:11,136 --> 00:36:12,869
Oh.
544
00:36:29,187 --> 00:36:30,554
Oh!
545
00:36:30,556 --> 00:36:32,289
Sorry!
Nearly done.
546
00:36:32,291 --> 00:36:34,124
I'm done!
547
00:36:34,126 --> 00:36:36,726
It's all yours.
548
00:36:40,531 --> 00:36:42,265
Okay.
549
00:36:48,573 --> 00:36:51,975
"Café Colbert at 2:00."
550
00:36:51,977 --> 00:36:54,411
Okay.
551
00:36:54,413 --> 00:36:56,213
So, if I can't sell my old
lady, and I can't sell my
552
00:36:56,215 --> 00:37:00,083
apartment, can I sell the
contract?
553
00:37:00,085 --> 00:37:02,252
Uh, <i> oui, oui, oui.</i>
554
00:37:02,254 --> 00:37:05,155
When someone can afford
a high-end apartment,
555
00:37:05,157 --> 00:37:09,426
they rarely want involvement
in a <i> viager </i> situation.
556
00:37:09,428 --> 00:37:12,862
Why is there only one toilet
in such a big apartment?
557
00:37:12,864 --> 00:37:14,931
One toilet is the French way.
558
00:37:14,933 --> 00:37:16,766
French people love eating,
559
00:37:16,768 --> 00:37:19,169
but pooing isn't so important.
560
00:37:19,171 --> 00:37:22,339
The old lady probably has
her own toilet downstairs.
561
00:37:23,507 --> 00:37:25,609
What if I get the Girards
to agree...
562
00:37:25,611 --> 00:37:28,111
to split the apartment
into two apartments?
563
00:37:28,113 --> 00:37:31,448
They keep the top floor, and I get
you to sell the bottom floor for me.
564
00:37:31,450 --> 00:37:36,853
No problem, if we can find a buyer
who accepts a <i> viager </i> contract.
565
00:37:36,855 --> 00:37:40,390
<i>Compliqué.</i>
566
00:37:40,392 --> 00:37:42,759
The French guy
I told you about?
567
00:37:42,761 --> 00:37:44,527
François something.
568
00:37:44,529 --> 00:37:46,963
He's, uh, very hot
to buy the apartment.
569
00:37:46,965 --> 00:37:49,432
And I'm meeting the daughter
at 2:00 at a café.
570
00:37:49,434 --> 00:37:52,469
I invited him to join us so I
can propose this split idea.
571
00:37:52,471 --> 00:37:55,772
I'd be anxious to know. Did you
tell him about the old lady's age?
572
00:37:55,774 --> 00:37:57,974
Yeah. Nothing seems
to scare him.
573
00:37:57,976 --> 00:38:01,478
Of course not. It's a
good age, a good address.
574
00:38:03,814 --> 00:38:06,216
Where do you live, Lefebvre?
575
00:38:07,952 --> 00:38:11,855
I live in the blood of Paris.
576
00:38:23,968 --> 00:38:25,802
<i>Your coat's torn.</i>
577
00:38:25,804 --> 00:38:28,204
Oh, yeah.
It is.
578
00:38:30,107 --> 00:38:34,644
Has, uh, François Roy
contacted you yet?
579
00:38:34,646 --> 00:38:36,079
"France Wah-Wah?"
580
00:38:36,081 --> 00:38:38,748
A man called François Roy
will be contacting you...
581
00:38:38,750 --> 00:38:40,250
regarding the sale
of the apartment.
582
00:38:40,252 --> 00:38:42,852
Yes. He already... He already called me.
In New York.
583
00:38:42,854 --> 00:38:45,822
We Skyped.
Hmm.
584
00:38:45,824 --> 00:38:49,259
Be careful with him.
He's a snake.
585
00:38:49,261 --> 00:38:52,862
Uh, Mademoiselle Girard, I think we're
about to have a little problem.
586
00:38:52,864 --> 00:38:55,491
It's a pleasure to meet
you face-to-face, Mr. Gold.
